[Psycluded]

Patrol 2 went off without too much trouble this evening, with over 30k tons sitting at the bottom of the Channel. When I was through. That, of course, was more than 800NM from my target area, but I headed there first and covered my bases.

Saw my first convoy tonight. 2 C2s with 2 escort DDs, C-class. Put a lucky 4-torpedo spread into one C2 and the escort just past it, dropping both. Turned and ran parallel to the convoy as the remaining escort approached my old position. Aft torpedo nailed him right in the ammo-store apparently, since he lit up like the 4th of July. Surfaced, moved in and deck-gunned the lone C2 down... too fun. My girlfriend watched the whole thing, yelling and laughing with me as the aft torp took out that one C-class DD.

Loving this game -so- much...

U-54's crew now has over 10 kills to her name, and every one of its crew has the U-Boat clasp for his uniform. My officers are becoming well trained, though still easily fatigued. Several of my NCOs have risen to the occasion to specialize in their departments, and I even got to hand out two promotions when we docked.

I am currently 4th in the U-Boat Ace list, and if I keep this up, it will be climbing.
