What theater of the war, do you like the most, or otherwise prefer to patrol in?

Myself, im going to say, hands down the carribean.

The Murmansk convoys in the Arctic. Vicious weather, absolute hatred between two irreconcilable political philosophies, no quarter given under any circumstance, a test of both man and machine.

It doesn't get any better than that....

Grids AJ, AK, AL, BC, BD, BE. i.e. the Northern Atlantic, between New Foundland, south of Greenland and Iceland, far west of Ireland.

The lonely death in the blue desert.

Cheers,

it cant be lonely
either you die from a plane,DD,whatever the enemy has with DC's or cannons
or you die because you dive too deep but the crew will be there too

Same here the convoy's take you by surprise, two I can mention one was a small one made up of only larger tankers but they were all neutral. The second one was made up of ten destroyers, lucky for me the weather was bad.
