Saturday, 13 December - 2nd U.-Flotilla (Korvkpt. Heinz Fischer, 08.41 - 01.43) - Lorient -
Taking on of Provisions, Ammunitions and Torpedoes:
Taking on of torpedoes:
- Tubes I-VI: G7e, K-b
- Bow above floor plates: 2 x G7e, K-b
- Bow under floor plates: 2x G7e, K-b & 2 x G7a, K-a
- Aft under floor plate: 2 x G7a, K-a
- Upper deck containers: 8 x G7a, K-a
All with fuse Pi-G7H (only AZ / Pi-1 without MZ)
Holding Op.-Briefings with B.d.U.:
Our own situation is marked by removal of bases and rich reserves of boats for operations:
a) Type VIIc boats in Scotland area.
b) Type IXb boats in Straits of Florida.
c) Type IXc boats from Trinidad to Aruba.
We must take advantage of the situation before changes are made. Principal attacks must be on single ships so that no mass movements will be possible: North Carolina/Cape Hatteras, Hampton Roads/Entrance Chesapeake Bay. Expect best results on 20m-Line from CA 39 to DB 61.

Holding Op.-Briefings with B.d.U.:
B.d.U. observations are as follows:
a) Commitment of 6 boats in area from Sydney to Charleston.
b) Commitment of the next 4 boats type IXc to Trinidad and Aruba.
c) For experience further commitment of type IXb boats in area 4a, type IXc in area IVb.
d) Experience will be gained for later operations. As long as the ratio is extant, the east coast of America is to be considered the most successful area for large boats.
e) Use of torpedo mines not contemplated since success will result only from large numbers.
f) Use of VIIc boats in the area South of Newfoundland where we can expect greatest traffic and least defense of enemy ships.
