Happy Hunting Grounds

In one of my earlier careers ran into a rather big convoy June 5, 1940 almost exactly in the center of AN16, course WNW (draw a line that goes WNW (292.5 I think) from the center of AN16, then extend it the opposite direction and that was pretty much their course. Speed 7kts, lightly guarded by 5 Flower Class Corvettes and Armed Trawlers, sunk 11 out of 18 merchant ships in the convoy plus all escorts, including two that went to the aid of the stricken convoy. Expended all torps and deck gun ammo. Later on in the night I caught sight of a Destroyer (forgot class), leading two Large Cargos, course NW from the center of AM16. Hope that's detailed enough, I don't have a screenshot of the map, just the log from the patrol.
