1/3 On 16 October 1940 Comandante Cappellini, on patrol in the Atlantic, met a Belgian steamer, Kabalo (en route from Glasgow to Freetown with a cargo of aircraft and spare parts), about 700 miles northwest of Madeira. Cappellini pursued Kabalo and ened her with her deck guns; Kabalo, being also armed, returned fire, but the merchant’s gunfire was ineffectual, and ceased after some time. Cappellini instead scored multiple hits, brought the ship to a halt and set her afire, then fired three torpedoes in succession to finish her off, but all the torpedoes passed beneath the target’s hull without exploding, perhaps due to the rough seas. The submarine then resumed fire with her deck guns, until the target sank. One crewman from Kabalo was killed in the action, the others abandoned ship. After the action was over, Cappellini began searching the area with a small searchlight; after a short time five survivors were found in the water, near a capsized dinghy, and were taken aboard.

First and foremost, find a place you feel comfortable in. It could be a restaurant, a shop, a pub, whatever you like hanging around. Frequent the place, get to know the people who work there, meet the regulars. This is a simple way to put down roots in a new spot. From there, you start venturing out, finding more places, meeting more people and finding new things. First time I moved was to ...
