Well, using the tactics that the guys suggested, I got out of that mess, but after midnight, when I thought it was safe, I surfaced and guess what. Yep. I'm into another mess. I guess I surfaced too soon. The River Destroyer Escorts from that convoy detected me and are coming after me. Damn.

Will let you know how this one turns out.

Default Part 3 is done

Well guys, I made it through the bombardment of depth charges and managed to take out a couple of River Corvets with a bow shot. Cool.

The Wolf survives and attacks

I had a difficult time balancing the vid sounds with the musical scores, so I may have to do it over again if you guys think it's too loud.

Default The last part is done

The last part (part 4) is done and uploaded to YouTube. It was a rather boaring end but I did sink another ship which left me with 2 stern torpedoes so I returned to base. I ran into stormy weather, which I had not had for a few missions, which was different. The stormy weather came AFTER I had sunk the last merchant.

The Wolf completes it's patrol.



Rob

P.S. Future patrols would be with a VIIC/42. Should I still call it the Wolf?

Since you seem to enjoy life in your VIIC/42 I suggest you continue calling it the Wolf After all Sailor Steve is correct they were all Wolves

Yep. I have already started my next patrol with U-245. I'm gonna shoot them darn planes out of the skies with my qualified flak gunners and sunk them ships my expert crew who have served me well in all my adventures.

One thing that mistifies me is when I tested it this morning, I was in a sub pen, but when I started the mission this afternoon, there was no sub pen???

Excellent as usual.....your choice of music is awesome.....I think it makes or breaks a video....there are some other great clips posted here...but the music just doesnt fit the subject matter....and lessens the impact subsequently.....Cant wait for Pt III.....
