A shot I could not believe !!

Out in my trusty U-94,, heading ENE ,, off the W coast of Ireland,

My sound man detects a merhy and off I go,, get within sight and she is Passenger liner,, cooking off her speped at 21 kts,

I set myself up for a CPA but at 4200 yards, I realixze she is now running away from me,, Zand I am at my Scope,, cursing that I had not fored a spread earlier, and maybe had a chance,

In absolute frustation I let loose 1 torpedo,

Amazed, at 5300 mt There is the BOOM!!

a one in 10 million shot,, and she slows to 11 kts, I could not believe it,, caught up to her, Smooth seas, broad daylight, no escort, 1944,

She now sleeps a full fathom five.

Just Dumb luck on my trusty steed!
