19th September 1939
Oberleutnant z. See Heinrich Schmidt finished his first patrol in U-14, a Type II boat. One British Merchant (Quadrant AN 48 - 9022 BRT) sunk, also had a night encounter with a battle group of 3 destroyers. A salvo of three torpedoes on the leading ship missed and U-14 was able to slink away unnoticed.
