Just got a radio message saying:

"From: BDU
To: U-148 (me)

Proceed to La Spezia for transfer to 29th flotilla"

....Is this for real or immersion purposes as it's addressed to my uboat? :doh:

If you are in the 23th flotilla in salamis in the 5\42 your base will change to la spezia.

I have gotten this first patrol Nov '41 out of Lorient 2nd Flotilla in an IXC. :-? What does BdU want to do with an IXC in the Med :06:

IIRC, Hitler Ordered BdU to send every Uboat they could into the med to give the brits a hard time and to help rommel, and for about 40 days, Britian lost a lot of ships.

Logic would have that the IX's would stay in the atlantic, but logic doesn't always prevail....

If I am not mistaken the message that arrives in november '41 is to U-96 and it says also to refuel at Vigo
