The pictures are in an album I created. This album was set to "private". I think that was the reason they could not be seen? I have changed the album to "public" now so the pictures should be visible.

Yes they are

I think I know what I'll be reading tonight.

Very good read, thanks for posting. Couple questions, what is 'depth a', and what does HE stand for?

HE stands for Hydrophone Effect, not a term actually used by the Germans as far as I know. I belief the English used this terminology.
A in depth A (or A-30m etc.) stands for Achtzig, which is German for eighty. A shorthand commonly used in the KTB to note the depth.

U-201 is in pursuit of the convoy, trying to make contact again.
