8 with U-23 and another 8 with U-99.
All other Kaleuns were recalled to shore duty earlier than their 16th patrol..... or they were sunk :dead:

Nope, he wasn´t the only one.
Gerd Kelbling made 16 Patrols with U-593 from 41 to 43 and was 322 days at sea. :up:

Thanks again :up:
Dosn't look like there was another one ?
But that guy KELBLING isn't on those lists either... :hmm:
They are only about the most _successful_ commanders not the most longest _surviving_ :lol:

I hated to do this after two years worth of games, but I deleted the old careers to start my new experience with GWX 2!

Can only advice to start one, too.

Nothing beats the feeling of dying in 1944 in your 30+ something patrol with your boat and character full of medals and experience, just because that :damn: allied radar equiped plane got you at night :rotfl:
