Patrol 5 (Sept '40)
For this patrol, we were ordered to go out into the Atlantic. We managed to get through the Bay unscathed, and made it to our patrol point.
For 20 days, we wandered, but were unable to spot any ships. Low on fuel, we were forced to head home. We made it back, but this was our first unsuccessful patrol.
During refit, I was promoted to Korevettenkapitan (KKpt). Even though we had an unsuccessful patrol preceding it, my body of work over the previous year was deemed satisfactory enough to get the promotion.
Tonnage sunk this patrol: 0
