report back scapa raid
 
report back scapa raid
Accepted mission sept 1939 to raid scapa flow . Fine weather until just outside sf . Heavy fog and rain at night upon nearing sf. Due to intelligence from Bdu re increased activity in sf (OH2 1.7 report) and the fact that doenitz wants something to happen , i have decided that even with bad weather we must keep going . We spotted a beakon but the visibility is so poor that we ran aground . The sub was able to be reversed off the sand bank with some hull damage and some minor injuries to crew . We cannot get a bearing with celestial navigation Because of the weather and unfortunately everytime the navigator takes a dead reckoning our calculations get worse . We have to be out of scapa by day break . Grounded the submarine 2 more times and more damage to hull and some minor injuries to crew . Stuck on unknown obsticle , end of career . Deleted all my saves . Thats it , i am determined to catch a trevally next time i go fishing .
