Oct 30th 1942
Assigned to AL35.
Departed at 01:00

Approx 100km west of France.
Weather is very good,waves 2mps

Endured 2 air attacks already,1st attack single fighter,no damage due to perfectly executed dive in good time.
2nd attack in space of 30mins,forced to fight on the surface as multiple Hurricanes screamed out of the sun preventing crash dive.1 plane crippled,bombs landed very close to aft SB section,shaking boat,no damage due to zig-zag maneuver.
Dived to 25m,will surface in 30mins.
You might want to stay down longer. Once you have been spotted, the chance of them finding you again is increased. The chance then slowly returns to normal over time. In '43+ I stay submerged 24 hours or more after being sighted.
