In these cases the first attack occured when I was at 256. I think the aircraft were spotted at only 2-3km.

After the first one, the next was at 128.

The last two were at 64.

On NO occasion did I manage to dive before being attacked - and hit - by cannon fire.

I had the best watch crew available for a first patrol:
1 x watch qualified Officer
2 x watch qualified PO
2 x highest rank seaman (3 chevrons rank)
