  U-boots steer by by the shortest route on the entry route beyond the 100-meter line and attach themselves to one of the 3 convoys established for their return harbor.  No pre notification for convoy meetings, boats that do not reach the escort as a result of time delays, sit silently at sea and attach themselves 24 hours later to the convoy.
