From O.K.W.:

From B.d.U.:
a) If numerically possible, U 180 (IXD1; Fregkpt. Werner Musenberg) is to be escorted by Ju 88 from 8° W, as of 26 June. Destroyer escort is also anticipated. The boat is carrying Japanese Officers, also, valuable apparatus and gold.
To U 115: As there is still no reports from supply group U 488 (Oblt.d.R. Erwin Bartke) and "Schliemann", all southward bound boats are duty bound to proceed at economical cruising speed in order to have more freedom of movement in the event of enemy contact.
