Klaus Korth U-93 24th Novermber 1940

After starting our patrol so positively im afraid the rest of the patrol yeilded nothing, we sailed all the way up to the north of Scotland and back down again before running low on fuel and having to return to St Nazaire! I decided to hit the nightclub with some of the crew and was informed about Hans Jenisch bagging the '42000 ton liner Empress of Britain. Yet all we could bag was a lousy 2000 ton passenger/cargo ship! I only hope our third patrol will be more successful. Im hoping for a quick turn around in port as myself and the crew are eager to get back out there in this 'glorious war'. On the way out of the bar Erich informed us that the commander was worried we wasnt coming back due to the lack of radio reports wed not sent, presuming we been caught up in one of minefields, that got me thinking maybe a daring port raid would boost our tonage? are my crew ready for such a feat?
