Boonie, are you breaking radio silence while on patrol?!

Never never use that blasted radio except for listening to Fibber Mcgee and Molly, or Armed Forces Radio! Not recommended listening to Tokyo Rose either. Sending transmissions is a good way to get every Jap plane and destroyer from Tokyo to Truk heading your direction!

Honestly, I quit sending radio messages while in Empire waters. I ended up with planes harassin' me day and night until I got east of the International Dateline. Seriously. It sucked bigtime!

So anymore, I just go to the patrol area like the boats really did. Remain on station until the time is up, and the icon turns gray, and if nothing happens, I go lookin' for trouble where I know I will usually find it. With-in 30nms of a harbor entrance, and just wait. Something either is going to go passed me heading in, or I will tag them goin' out.
