Just ended latest stream. Successful night time TF intercept exactly where expected. Seas heavier at 11 m/s. The flat top was rolling even more. Light and heavy cruisers pitching less than the carrier, but still seemed to be a little off in one way or another. Either too high in the water or pitching. The only ships that really seemed to be maintaining a realistic stance on the waves were the destroyers and the one remaining merchant. Felt good to make that third contact with the same task force. A first for me. And I doubt that I will soon do it again. Sank only one destroyer though. I think I turned in for my attack run too early and should have continued to run out in front of them for a bit longer. Oh yeah. Almost forgot. Formation speed was 17 knots this time. I guess I sank the slow one already?
