German merchant marines not taught concept of 'right-of-way' it seems . . .
 

I'm leaving Lorient in September '42. For a change I decided to do so at 1X compression, and only visually from the bridge, following my minesweeper escort. I wasn't using the nav map at all, just following my escort. Good thing I was doing so, too.

About halfway through I'd noticed a tramp steamer heading our way.

I'd expected it to stop; heave to . . . or something. After all, I'd think naval vessels had priority. Even if they didn't, you don't cross each others bows, true?

All of a sudden I noticed my escort going to back speeds. And my comfortable 700 meters follwing distance was abruptly shrinking. Quite fast, too! I had to go to back full in a hurry to kill my forward speed. And still that tramp steamer kept approaching!

Finally it passed, and I waited for my escort to continue guiding me. Hehe.

It never went to ahead again. Just accelerated backwards until . . .

So much for my escort out of Lorient! :rotfl:

Poor Bernard should never have been assigned to Lorient, it's well known it's the toughest port to navigate out of :rotfl:

Are we to presume he failed his Masters Certificate :hmm:
