Snuck into Gibraltar yesterday and sank three warships and four merchants. Was chased down by two electro boats escaping, and the U-boat took minor damage while surfacing to go over the U-boat net in the channel. Sank one electro boat and damaged the other before completely clearing the channel. The U-boat was heavily damaged in the attack, and the front torpedo compartment was completely flooded. Headed back to port and docked. Several medals was, including one Iron Cross was recieved.
Found a large convoy today. Waited til nightfall and positioned the U-boat infront of the convoy. Sank two of the three escrots and damaged the last one in the process. Once in position, one large cargo ship and one large merchant ship was sunk. Headed for the patrol area. Found nothing. Headed back to port and docked the U-boat. Several medals and a second Iron Cross was recieved.
Heading back out to sea tomorrow. Heading back to Gibraltar to finish the job.
