Cool. I roll dice for lots of things, including which number I actually pick.

You're right, they did do "Front" patrols, but the numbers I see are different than the ones you post:
U-1: 1 patrol, the others were training.
U-2: 1 patrol, the others were training. It says 2 patrols, but the listing says otherwise.
U-3: 2 of the "5" were combat patrols, the other 3 were training.
U-4: Again the actual listings are at variance with the stated "4" patrols. They list 6, 2 of which are front line.
U-5: Again they say 2 patrols, but list 5, and only one of those says "Front Patrol"
U-6: Same thing-2 patrols, but list shows 5, only one of which is war patrol.
Which one is correct?
But you're right; they all did at least one war patrol.
I also posted before I saw your post about looking for the other thread.
I apologise. I don't usually react that way.
Well, usually, but not most of the time.
Well, most of the time, but certainly not all of the time.
