For me, morale is one of the most mysterious things here. I don’t know whether proximity depends on the base, I just know that everyone knows that it increase on the completion of tasks and tonnage. Once, when transferring a campaign, I only had to go from St. Nazaré to Bergen, while completing a mission. I decided not to be distracted by searching along the way and focus north of 65 degrees. As a result, morale dropped to zero, the boatswain did not save the situation, temporarily adding only 1-2 points. On the other hand, during very long patrools to Africa and Murmansk, morale did not fall below 7 (with regular support from the bosun, cook, sure).
