One of my greatest successes was in Dover went in just before the war started proper (sorry Poland) I sailed in and waited for the war, then submerged fired at (I think) a troop ship and a med. cargo - one from the stern, one from the bow, a DD was sat tied up by the entrance also received my attention, but could only return deckgun fire, and then the best thing happened, a corvette (again, I think, it was a long time ago) came steaming in and DC'd me, but in the very shallow water merely sunk himself.

Escaped all the RN in the channel and came home for tea and medals.
I think I was a marked man after that as I never again had that much luck, or fun.
