Trying to identify conning tower holes.

Hello list, I am working on a display model and I am trying to figure out what the two holes are on the front of the Type VIIC conning tower are used for. I “think” they might be fog horns or air intakes. I have seen videos of deck gun ammo being passed through a hatch on the side of later Uboots but not these round holes. Any help is appreciated.
