Hello,

so, the difficulties for maintaining the German subs in the Med are obvious, as described by Chris. Old boats, much used, well, that's it!

As for the two torpedo attacks of U 35 on the way home:

22.09.1918 at 23:45, South-West of Cabo Sao Vicente:
One of the 18 steamers within Convoy O.F. 51 (USS Algonquin, HMT William Hutchinson, Newland, John Haile), not identified by me, attack went unnoticed.

30.09.1918 at 12:29, South-West of Rockall Bank (approx. 56°N):
A single steamer of approx. 4500 tons, not identified by me, attack went unnoticed.
