16 January 1941
"Yodeleeheehoooooooooooooo." The cry came from the conning tower overpowering the U-104 choir practice.
"What was that?" Balz asked.
"That's Bernard yodeling, Herr Kaleun."
Balz shot up the ladder.
Outside, rain pinged on the bridge with a demented staccato. Fog swirled around the boat like Salome's dance of the Seven Veils and Bernard yodeled like a sick cow.
"What are you doing, you imbecile?"
Bernard stood at attention. "I thought it was appropiate to yodel in an alpine landscape."
"Mensh, du bist veruckt, man, you're crazy,"
"Nein, Herr Kaleun. We're in the alps, look!" Bernard placed his hands on the sides of his mouth and yelled, "Halloooo."
"Halloooo, halloooo," two echoes responded.
"All engines astern one third" Balz yelled down the hatch. He then directed his fiery gaze at Bernard. "You idiot. We're in the middle of icebergs why didn't you report when you saw it?"
"I've seen higher bergs in the Alps. Once you've seen one berg, you've seen them all."

Since you have probably allready got your WO in the stern tube ready to fire try having him do an internal clean of one of your bow tubes. With the sounds he makes he will sound like a whale when you fire him.
