Great read, neat little log you collect there. I could only imagine the hair on your neck as the swan passed so close and missed

Swans are bad news. Congratz on your escape. I had a couple of bad scrapes this patrol (Nov 41).

Very nice! I am itching to run into a convoy myself, haven't had such luck yet. I am patroling the convoy routes, but nothing yet. It is 1939 though...

I am guessing convoys in 1939 are not as common, or numerous, am I right?

Hi panzermeyer,
There are indeed convoys in '39 -- I just attacked one on my first GWX patrol. And in fact they were running convoys that early -- just not so many, not so huge, and not over the vast distances that they did later on. I suspect the one BdU reported to me was the Gibraltar-Liverpool run. Mach's gut!

Well I did get a message from another u-boat saying they ran into a convoy. However it was off the coast of Portugal, and I was off the Northern coast of Ireland. No way I can catch up with it, or intercept in time.
However, I do patrol to 1939 convoy routes, I've run into many ships out by themselfs, but no convoy yet.
