U-108, Sept. 26th. 1940 17:07 - Patrol 12.

Just East of the Northern Hebrides - a strong echo..! Oops, here we go again. A Fiji class cruiser approaching straight on.....how is that for positioning...

10 minutes later - what a flop! See our aft-launched "steamer" cross just behind him and past his starboard bow....some fancy maneuvering saved him from this and our first, forward-launched torp. Two wasted!

Nothing could make him turn around - U-108 chased Fiji Northwards.....
