My watch-officer. Everytime i manage to drag him from his bed and up to his actual post to do some spotting he manages to find something sweet. after 350k tons in my career, never changing my watchman i gave him the iron cross I-class for his dedication with the binoculars.

My hydrophone-operator tends to be highly favorised and find himself in a rain of medals. Last time in my last convoy where he managed to spot a big, fat convoy while i was submerged and resting my crew. My personal record of amount of ships sunk was during that patrol, 9 ships totalling about 70k tons. Now as i am closing towards 1942 and good hydrophoning get's a more and more important part of the order of the day, i am perfectly sure he will do even better!

I awarded him the german cross in gold for his dedication with the phones that night. Had he slept on his watch (like everyone else was at the time), we would have missed that convoy entirely.
