Hi, well Michael, just have a look for U 94.
I have seen U 52's KTB, she was in St. Georges Channels 12. - 15.08.1918, two or three times having the LEINSTER in sight, but not down in the Bristol Channel.
Have also seen UB 86 and UB 92 KTB, both using the route West of Ireland to reach their operational area. UB 92 being off Coningbeg LV just on the evening of 19.08., going to the Irish Sea and UB 86 was off the Cornwall Coast just on the evening of 17.08.1918.
U 96 after an breakdown of her machinery on 11.08. already on her return journey was in square 099 alfa 2 at 2 a.m. (according to an W/T message from her), that is far to the South of Ireland.
