%$#%$# Luftwaffe!!

[cj95]

A reprimand has been entered into the record of Lt Zur See Waldemar Gerking, Commanding Officer U-8.

On or about Sept 6th, 1939, Lt Gerking claims that he had just torpedoed a Polish Merchant ship and was waiting submerged to assess the effect of the damage.

Lt Gerking claims that soon thereafter a flight of He. 111's dropped from the clouds and proceded to bomb the merchant which subsequently sank.

Several Near Misses were reported by U-8 which narrowly escaped a friendly fire incident.:eek:

Upon returning to port and discovering he did not receive credit for the sinking, Lt Gerking promptly went to the nearest bar and assaulted the 1st Luftwaffe officer he found.:stare:

In consideration of the needs of the service, Lt Gerking will retain command of U-8, but have to attend anger management classes.:damn:



(It was dang close!)

Goering is such a jackal. :nope: He can't defeat RAF Fighter Command, but he'll take the easy kills from under our noses. How come they never providentially show up when I'm being pounded by escorts?

[Jaman]

Fatass poster boys are good for nothing.

I was leaving Wilhelmshaven once when I spotted two British destroyers steaming at 30kts towards Helgoland. I called in the flyboys and witnessed how they got their asses kicked. The Tommies didn't even slow down. Had I known the flyboys are such wooses I would have engaged the destroyers myself.

I was raiding the harbour of Lerwick, Shetland's.. just 1min before attacking two merchant I saw... our planes! coming from Est, and attacking all ships! 2 DD sunk and several ships on fire!!

I attacked too, in the messing of the battle...

Happened to me too!
Only my Boot didn't get damaged, but we did not get any credit for sinking!

And have wasted two good Eels!:nope:

Hermann's fluffy booted flyboys are always around when you least need them.:haha:

That was just Goering...

[XTBilly]

The remnants of a small convoy, three freighters (one of them badly damaged by me) and an escorting destroyer...

Luftwaffe attacks, sinking the already damaged freighter, instead of removing the destroyer threat for me to finish them up...:x

Easy kills will do for them...:shifty:

[sharkbit]

I've never seen the Luftwaffe in the Atlantic.
When I started a career in the Med is when I started to see them. I agree with everyone else though. More of a hinderance than a help. :damn:

Because escorts fire back :DL

The Cowardly Luftwaffe eh? Now I know why there's so much 'yellow' on a Messerschmitt. :smug:

I lost a kill to my escort as we were leaving Salamis harbour yesterday. We had just gotten out into the bay when the watch crew spotted a Greek passenger/cargo ship. Raced over to sink her but by the time that we got there she was going down. Lost another one to our Italian "allies" just east of Malta too. I had intercepted a small convoy & was preparing to destroy a large cargo vessel when our "allies" turned up in the form of a small Axis convoy. The lead Italian destroyer engaged and destroyed the first British escort which made me think "Alright! :up: my job just got a whole lot easier." I had the cargo vessel all lined up when the Italian destroyer starts blasting away at it. I couldn't surface because there was another enemy escort vessel still around. By the time that I got within optimum firing range my target was going down.:damn: Il Duce will be getting a very nasty letter from Onkel Karl. Fickle, treacherous b*st*rds...:mad:

I watched two aircraft collide - thought it was a combat with an enemy aircraft. We altered course to investigate only to find 2 Bf-109' in the water trying to propel their way to shore with only the prop and part of the cockpit on the surface. We should have used the deck gun on them! Fools!


:har:

It's interesting how the Luftwaffe always shows up when you have your target in front of your tubes. :hmmm:

It's that damn Goering, he's psychic I tell ya :o

[Oberon]

Nonsense, it's Schroeder, he knows everything therefore he knows when to send Raptor out to ship-hunt ;)

If ever you spot a Luftwaffe aircraft colliding with a ship, that's me :shucks:

Have seen a few convoy attacks by long range bombers in GWX 3.0 NW of Ireland. Always seem to be when i am lining up to attack the same convoy!

Once however it worked to my advantage as the DD's perceived the aircraft circuling far away to be a greater threat that me creeping into the middle of the convoy and letting loose hell! :arrgh!: Even managed to reload 2 tubes with realistic loading time on before the DD's got bored of the plane and decided to hunt me! 3x large tankers, Southampten class, Whale factory ship and one ammunition ship later i evaded and RTB to buy that bomber crew a nice cold pint. :yeah:
