Since the beginning of the year, five U-boats have been destroyed by bombing of the yards. In addition damage to the yards and to the cities in which they are situated will result in the further loss of production of 17 U-boats before September, 1944. Of the total of 22 U-boats denied, 10 are attributable to attacks in the third quarter. Although the shortage of A.F.Vs., and Signals equipment is primarily due to the high rate of wastage, the inadequacy of production has been aggravated by bombing particularly in the case of signals equipment for the G.A.F.
