By now you must be enjoying a glass of fine German beer with GrossAdmiral Karl Doenitz himself!
Well done!
If I may , I would put those men up - and those crewmembers who personally captured him - for the Knight's Cross!

A very imaginative story!

Danke! Yes, I would have, but none were eligible as none had the EK1 as of yet.

I agree but in such a rare occasion an one time deal could be worked out!

You might be right...I may very well appeal to the Grossadmiral about this. Nothing like getting rid of the British Blowhard to warrant special considerations!

When the war is over...kameraden. Right now, there are oceans to conquer, convoys to intercept, ships to sink, enemy personnel to kill, and a Reich to help rule Festung Europa.

TORPEDOS...LOS!

That's just it...she WAS armed! Which is why I attacked submerged, therefore rendering her guns null & void.

Can't ram what you don't see...thank goodness for the electric, wakeless torpedoes! He didn't know what hit him until it was too late.
