My best patrol was one of my first. I was sailing just off the southeast of England when I came across a convoy. It was early morning, the skies were clear and the water was smooth. Once I'd identified all the ships I sent off a contact report and submerged for the attack. About half an hour later the Luftwaffe rolled in and started bombing the convoy. It was a beautiful sight to see bombs hitting the water, off in the distance at the head of the formation, in that early morning light and haze.
The Luftwaffe boys made two or three sorties that morning, and I honestly don't remember if I even fired a torpedo. It was just an awesome sight to take in.
