haha! Quite right.

When my colleagues at Kriegsmarine learned of my blunde---I mean, "tactical errors", I was ostracized, like I was a leper or something; and everytime I enter a room, s******s and boos would almost always follow.

To end the blight and stigma on my character, I did the only thing left for me to do: die with honor.

And so, at the sounding of the three bells, I quietly left the harbor with my U-boat.

Just 200 kilometers off the Kiel harbor, I ordered the lifeboats lowered. And after having paid my crew handsomely to go home to their wives and children, we boarded the lifeboats, leaving an empty floating submarine behind.

Ten minutes later and a deafening explosion was heard, followed by a huge fireball that mushroomed into the sky. It was a beautiful sight. Luckily, I was able to radio a message to BDU, informing them that we have engaged an enemy convoy comprising of 2 battleships and 3 DDs and successfully sunk all of them. Without mincing words, we added that our U-boat has been critically damaged, is taking water, and is currently on the process of sinking.

Three days later and I'm back at Kiel. I now sport a beard and a new name. Nobody seem to recognize me anymore, even my colleagues. I just got my new orders. I have been given the command of U-51 and assigned to patrol the AM19 grid off the western coast of Merry England. The entire base is buzzing with news and my heroic last stand is the hottest topic. I (my previous self, I mean) have been posthumously awarded with the Iron Cross and promoted to Captain. There is already a talk of erecting my statue on the center of Berlin, side by side with Der Fuhrer.

Not bad.

And now I'm off to a new adventure. And this time, I am now equipped with a very vital knowledge: how to use the goddamn AOB rings.
