27 May 194o:
Goeben departed Wilhelmshaven on another raiding mission. Weather was excellent throughout patrol. Results: Returned to port on 29 May 1940, having sunk 11 warships for 13,606 tons in an attack on Dunkirk. Also shot down a single Hurricane...my boys' first fighter kill! The only reason we returned to port was to replenish our ammunition; the ammo for the port secondary guns had been completely expended. 1 Hawker Hurricane Fighter 1 Tribal-class DD 1 Bourrasque-class DD (our first French DD!) 2 C/D-class DDs 6 V/W-class DDs 1 Armed Trawler |

19 Juni 1941
02:10 uhr DT6571 THOMSEN!!!!!!!!! (Couldn't help. Been at see 21 days for a single freighter (7,000 tons) and on my way to Freetown. My course is 177 degrees, when out of the mist comes Typ IX uboat (with double flak towers!) I just yelled out "Thomsen" when I id'd the contact. The dog look at me rather strangely! He is on a course of 242 degrees - no idea where he is off to, perhaps looking for targets NNW of Kapverden.) |
