Extract from decoded and translated German Naval intercepts held in the National Archives:
Short naval situation report dated 7/Sep/42, item V: Channel and Atlantic Coast
“On the afternoon of 3rd September a diesel generator in the U-boat base at Brest was damaged by explosive charge. On the same day 2 further charges were set in transformer plants in the dockyard area. One charge was a failure, damage to second plant was repaired.â€
Hope this is of interest.

Bruce
