01/5/1940 -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- To : U-52 (Leutnant J. Balz) From : Kptlt. Erich von Stroppel (Flotilla 7) -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Leutnant Balz, BdU sent me the news of your 100,000+ claim. Good to hear we've got someone to match up to the standards of the aces of today. Unfortunately, the Olympics have been cancelled. No hoochie woochie to interrupt the stadium I'm afraid. Fortunately, we've gotten word of a fat convoy lurking around Loch Ewe. Got about 30 freighters in her, or so I'm told from Herr Dönitz. I've had to sit in a few meetings with him these past couple of days regarding the status of our U-boat fleet. In response to this great achievement, I am sending to you 3 crystal containers filled with cognac, vintage 1810 (100 years before my birth) and a typewriter (personally for you). This should make those long voyages easier and also more exciting, though I'm requesting that you keep the cognac at base due to the conditions of U-boats, as you're already educated on. Note that the typewriter is the latest model, and it's much easier to use than those primitive ones our parents were using during the Great War. Hope you enjoy it. Must go now. We're reviewing plans on a new U-boat that we might be able to put into comission early next year. Hals- und Beinbruch! -Kapitänleutnant Von Stroppel |
