Invasion of Norway!
 

GSX is so cool. On my sixth patrol in early April 1940 and I am sent to a strange grid to patrol. No where near Britain. Actually it is just south of Norway. As I sail there I notice 2 or 3 convoys and 2 task forces are also on route to Norway. I look up the Invasion of Norway and see that it started on April 9th, but the first German ships got there April 7th. I look at the date and it is April 6th! Very cool. I am part of the invasion.

Hey quick question. Is there any nice hunting spots around Norway. I will be done my assigned patril grid and still have a full load of fish. I would rather not have to sail all the way over the Britain if there is some nice targets around here.

There's that big hunting-spot, moving towards Norway...follow it! :D

Beware in AN23, April 7, 1940... they almost run over me there!

KM on the - very fast! - move:
