About to leave for my 4th Patrol on 23rd NOV 1939 at AM-34

KAPITÄNLEUTNANT William Adama
U-52 Type VIIb
U-Flotilla Saltzwedel (3 patrols)
17.8K Tons so far

Hit a nutral ship and survived the court marshall,
How was i surpost to know the ship was from Belgium?
the flags look the same in the dark and it was in french waters. pluss it was blacked out and not lighting its flag up..
Luckily she dident sink the explosion from the initial hit light the flag and made my aware. I let her be and ran away fast.


"there are some days I really hate this job"

Lets hope I get a nice fat un escorted convoy for number 4
