:cry: :cry: On patrol off Casablanca and I decided to rumble with an armed trawler. Seeing as i had sucessfully anihillated a tug earlier using my patented technique and I was bored i decided to surface behind him and take him out. The trawler went down ok then I noticed my flak gunner was looking a bit off. I stuck him in the stern quarters with the medic but being dead he didnt recover. I buried him at sea before even looking at his name. I feel bad :cry:

I nearly lost 44 men while typing that last message! Went back to find I hadnt paused and i was at 51% hull integrity with a couple of planes flying over me dropping bombs. Doh!

Those tubs aren't worth it--I lost two men to a tug. Ptooey!
You should always submerge when you leave your ship unattended.:yep:
Hell just be careful about not paying attention in general.
Otto Kretschmer was sunk and captured just because he went to his bunk at the end of a convoy attack and let an officer pilot him out. The officer made the wrong decision, submerged near a DD and became a target.
Always take care of that ship!:up:

Yeah i lost an Officer, two Chief WOs and 5 Sailors when i decided to go after a Armed Trawler and a Plane. It sucks when you lose men out there, the worst part is that i crashed dive when they all died, fearing my boat would sink. So that was there burial at sea.
