I sank it with my trusty deck-gun since I only had one torpedo ready to fire in the aft tube, tough to line up at times. About halfway back in the Norwegian Sea I ran into a small merchant that was flying the Polish flag when I got close enough to make out two horizontal stripes of light and dark. Going to flank speed I made my way out of there avoiding further patrol craft.Īfter repairing what I could I made my way back around the Shetland Islands to set coarse for the Helgoland Bight and my home port. On the surface I was in the center of two groups of other patrol craft nearly 10,000 m away from me. Running on the bottom for a while I finally decided to come up and use the hydrophone to scan for contacts. Eventually I shook my antagonist by getting lower, 2 meters or so from the bottom and maneuvering at 2 knots rigged for silent running. The attack destroyed both my periscopes and radio antenna. After a blundered maneuver a well dropped pattern of depth charges in the shallow 82 m deep water they damaged by conning tower and forward deck. I tried losing them several times but they wouldn't let go. I dived and evaded the first rack of depth charges from the DE. Anyways I was nearly out of the channel when I was set upon by three very persistent patrol craft, one a destroyer escort. Since the wind was up to 6 meters per second I couldn't get my reserve torpedoes off the deck but I could use my trusty deck-gun. I struck gold, sinking several more ships there before expending all of my forward torpedoes and firing close to 100 rds from the deck-gun. The first ship I found I hit with an electric torpedo in the stern that finally sank. I decided to go into the Irish Sea through the North Channel. I had to patrol off the coast of Ireland but didn't see much. I started a career in 1939 with Flotilla 2 at Wilhelmshaven in a Type VIIB. Its taken six patrols to get my torpedo shooting skills back.
