End and exit this patrol. Restart SH3 for this commander. When given the chance to load a new mission, DO NOT load the default IN BASE BEFORE MISSION. Select instead the patrol just prior to the corrupted one, IN BASE AFTER MISSION. That will delete the corrupted patrol you just exited.

You'll need to re-award medals, quals, and promotions earned on that mission before you start a new mission.
Well I run GWX + Commander + hardcode patch and I have to say that even with a XXI career in 1944-45 this has been almost a non issue. I got serious problems saving underwater one-two times out of several tens of saves. Granted I still prefer to save on the surface when I am forced to go up because the weather is too bad to use the snorkel properly but otherwise I routinely save underwater without apparent problems.
