Oblt. z. S. Max Immelmann, U-130 (IXC).

1st patrol, Lorient, left at 1st December, 1941. Destination: Caribbean.

Sunk 6 for 29,000 GRT NW of Spain. Refuelled from Bessel at Vigo and took on five replacement torpedoes. Uneventful transit of Atlantic.

Currently in Cuba - Puerto Rico channel. Sank three tankers (one large, one medium and one small) inside three hours. Hardly got enough time to reload the tubes! Crew exhausted but morale is sky-high.

"Sound contact, sir, mechant medium speed, closing..."

Gotta go, fellas'..., duty calls!

U-130 out.
