I have to sell this now to my crew as a magnificent opportunity to hit a blow to the underbelly of Britain - while in reality its more of a suicide mission.
Thank God its early in the war. If it was late 1940 or later, then I would change the emblem of my boat from a Medusa's head to a Cross with the name of my Kaleun on it.

You must have also upset the same guy who sent my type II first to BF31 (patrol report - yes, Portsmouth is still there) and then to coast of Wales. There I hit a mine, which almost wrecked my boat, I got her the surface, with wrecked diesels and damaged electrics, tried to submerge whilst repairing the boat and lost control again, just managed to surface with the last of my compressed air and found by destroyer whilst sat trying to repair the electrics. Surprisingly I couldn't convince it to leave by firing at it with the flak gun.
