I'm a crazy realism guy. What I do is use SH3 Commander to set 'Days in Base' to 18. I then run a little mini-patrol and use the downtime to set up my crew the way I want them, again using Commander. My first "real" patrol has me leaving base on August 19, which is when 14 boats were actually sent out to wait for "further orders". They were on station when the war started on September 1, and that's exactly where I am when Britain declares war on the 3rd.
So it makes perfect sense, because that's what really happened. It means two weeks of waiting, but hey, that's the way it was.
