31 May 1940
U-111 was ready to depart for grid DJ11
U-108 had already left and U-37 had returned after a succesful patrol despite those faulty TIIs with their magnetic pistols. Kaleun Snestorm still uses these.
U-10 sunk some 11K tons during her last patrol , a considerable sum for a type IIA Uboot. Kaleun Wiebus must be given command of a large IXB U-boot
U-65 returned with heavy damages but also 13K tons at her account while U-93 radioded in that she was under air attack.
