Ah! A short one! I had no idea the area was heavily mined. I must have sailed through the area countless times

I just started a brand new career in SH4. S-18 class boat, out of Manilla. Literally less than an hour after setting sail, 10 nm from port, Betties screamed over the hills. I had no time to react. Bombs fell all around, and the boat bottomed out - Shortest career I've ever played.

Here's to some better luck next time!
