The next day we found a much better target. A Large Troopship. We sank her with 4 torpedoes, we surfaced to watch her sink but we were caught on the surface by two Avenger aircraft, we sustained minor damage from the attack.
We decided to head home, having completed our objective and we only had two torpedoes in the aft tubes, saving them if we needed to use them for self-defense.
We are now embarked on the return voyage.

Safe return voyage, especially, through the Bay of Biscay ...
