I was forced/flooded to the bottom early in the career I'm on now. First time that had ever happened to me I think.

Such a great feeling when you finally break the surface and breathe that fresh ocean air again.

And he wasn't using Drifter's longer repair mod! Great story!
Does it work with gwx 1.03 as well? I only found a version for 1.02.

You will do what every other combat toop does.

Thank the people for the nice medal
Throw it in some box
Get back to taking care of your troops and the mission
Honour the men who sacrifaced for you

The respect of your men is clearly more important than some medal, your story illistrated that.

You took your men to hell and brought most of them back. You took care of the mission and your men. There is no medal that can represent that...nor should there be.

Each one of your men, even the ones still on eternal patrol, will look at you and think "you done good".

I'll sail with you any day! You show the signs of great leadership skills from your account. Great story and hope you learned valuable lessons from it. I too have had my fair share and close calls. Came back once with 37% hull intigrety and four dead; only sunk one ship through that whole ordeal.

Fair winds and calm seas on your next patrol.
