Gulp!
Well I finished my cruise and am sitting outside Guam to go into port. Wasn't a really terrible cruise for the last part of the war. Duci had the harbor south of Tokyo harbor so full of Q-ships it was amazing! Just trolling for innocent submarines they were. I sank two and lost one to a dud.

Ha, ha! the last dud didn't make the report. Firing tube 6 and no hit, no miss, no dud. So what happens now? Does the Admiral let me live? Rather than learn to like raw fish, I guess I'm gonna face the music...
