Hello everyone!

In U-111 off the coast of Ireland in March 1940 on my second patrol.

Sank 21 ships(some trawlers, granted), two destroyers(JK class and an AB), three asw trawlers and a Revenge class battleship with a nice four shot spread. Got a large tanker(8230grt) on the way out of the convoy with a tube V magnetic shot and missed a Black swan with tube VI. Dived to 160 m, ran silent and escaped.

Got home with about 85000 tonnes sunk, no casualties and 92% hull integrity thanks to an annoying Hurricane.

Was awarded an Iron Cross second class.

Shouldnt I be having lunch with Adolf and getting a Knights Cross?

Is this a joke? Or was sinking an American medium cargo,(always submerged to resemble a mine hit)a bad idea........ 21 Allied. 1 Neutral.

Running GWX 3.0 and 50% realism.

I want Golden Oakleaves too....
