Well that's no fun. 
I'll say it since no one has. The Channel crossing 5-6 June 1944. Plenty of merchants, battleships, cruisers, and destroyers with the best equipment available. I was in U-1205 (XXI) and had well over 300000 tons by the end of the night, but that was sadly her last patrol. Too many Hedgehogs (all escorts have them) and Leigh Light attacks. If you get out alive from that wolf's den, you are a holy man to Germany.
