That sounds like a believable outcome. A bit early maybe compared to Kretschmer, Prien, and Shcepke but still. The aces usually suffered failure first because the counters to their daring tactics would catch them.

I'd say thats a worthwhile career.

Now, being an ace after 43... that would be special.

Yep... when you tempt fate often... eventually Davey Jones wins.

Six patrols is a good and honest number.

Salute! RIP crew of U-47.

I raise my glass to the honor of the captain and brave crew of U-47. May their sacrify not nhave been in vain.
