I don't know if this will help. But I believe the orders are to do a 5 day shakedown and then return to port. What I usally do is head out to the assigned grid, when I recieve the message for the 7th Flotilla, I turn around and head back to port. I figure it will get me back to port around the 6-9 depending on when I exactly turn around. With the 20 days in port that makes it late Aug (26 - 29), then I head out on my new patrol and usually get there a day or two before the war is delcared. I don't think there is a message for the 1st or 2nd Flotillas telling them to return to port, just the 7th to return and transfer.

hope this helps
