I saw the graphic while looking though the files, but never had it in-game.

While on the career saving subject, there was also an 'abandon ship' option in SHCE with three outcomes; captured POW, KIA, or Rescued - saving the career. I think this was displayed in newspaper headlines. It's been a while so I'm not 100% sure on that one...

Both were nice options I wish had been included in SH4. I play DID or Sunk is sunk, however running out of fuel 100 nm from base, or abandoning ship at 26' shouldn't be a 100% career killer imo, there were friendlies in WWII.


Anyway, SH4 is what it is

I apologize for straying off topic!
I think Trav gives the option to return to base with a push of a button in one of his mods for a lil loss of renown.
