Heh, I didn't have more eels, otherwise I would indeed have taken my time and made sure
also it was that skipper's 2nd patrol, so I had to be extra careful about not getting killed

Nearly died right at the end too, with the new st. Nazaire I didn't check where the minefield is supposed to be, got lucky .
I am now on the third patrol, with 2 successful attacks on a convoy in grid BE, have sunk 3 cargos 1 tanker and a DD that came poking around while I was finishing off a straggler.
