U-502
27 August 1941.

The atmosphere off Cape Sao Vicente was depressing. After I sank that large freighter, we had no further contacs and Capt. Balz would not get out of bed.
On 19 August, he entered the Zentralle wearing his burgundy bathrobe. "I need a soap box," he said.
"Herr Kaleun, Steed has a monopoly on BDU issued soap boxes."
"And custard pies," Bernard complained.
Balz frowned. "Though the resonance of great statements has less power, I guess the chart box will have to do." Balz climbed on the chart box and said, "Assemble the crew."
Soon we had the Zentralle packed with people.
"You will have noticed that in the last few days, I was in deep consultations with my pillow. We have a great submarine, carry more torpedoes than ever before. And what happens? The great Balz, misses a shot. We need 200 thousand tons on this maiden voyage and I fire a torpedo and get no boom-boom.
"Well, I have news for you. We are going to Tanker Alley where we will offset our tonnage deficit by sinking fat, oily tankers. One torpedo, one tanker hoochie woochie."

We arrived at Tanker Alley on the 25th. and sunk a large freighter, on the 26th torpedoed another one. So far, no tankers.
Meanwhile, Balz been busy sewing tonnage penants made from a bolt of gold silk he brought aboard and mumbling, "Einz zwei, hoochie woochie."

I hate to think what will happen if we don't get 200K tons.

You're behind Ziepel's score.

From BDU

We need to check exact numbers and documentation. Kptlt Balz, while in command of U-53 (a type VII boat) has sunk well over one million tons prior to taking command of U-502 on 03 August 1941.
