KTB - U 112

Sunday, 9 February 1941 - Lorient

B.d.U. Assessment:

Another stellar war patrol by this seasoned commander and boat. The sinking of now the third aircraft carrier and a heavy cruiser, will inflict no doubt a heavy setback in the war efforts of the enemy and is of great strategic importance. His award with the Oak Leaves to the Knights Cross, was a mere consequence of his distinguished valour in battle. The vast experience of the commander will now best be utilized to bring up the new generation of Uboat commanders, as the command of the distinguished boat will be relinquished into the very capable hands of its XO, who himself was awarded with the Knights Cross after this war patrol.
