John,

There was no reported U-boat activity around HG-69, outbound from Gibraltar she was re-routed further away from U-boat activity that was detected in the vicinity of OG-70. U-124 radioed in the first sighting of HG-70 at mindnight 12 August. U-124 was spotted on 12 August by a Catalina and also by now the SO escort was getting regular messages from the Admiralty that the convoy was being shadowed. The escort was reinforced and by the evening of 15 August U-124 had broken off contact.

Regards,

Mark
