7/14/1940 North Atlantic 29th day at sea
U-48 searched her ordered area and found no contacts, B.d.U. Instructed us to patrol in AK 6587 and AL 7484 searching for 6 days however no shipping was found. Hartmann informed B.d.U. and they gave Hartmann freedom of movement or return to base, Hartmann choose to continue the patrol further south and she is now working south toward the Azores. For this the crew repainted her camouflage and her emblem was painted over.
