It's a known bug with the game that if you upgrade anything before your first patrol you will receive no Renown for that patrol. Included already in the "read-me" file for grey wolves...states that for your first patrol you should NOT upgrade anything, this includes extra submariners, it does state that you "Might" get away with upgrading your sub emblem, but to be on the safe side...

1. First patrol(Shakedown)>>>>>NO UPGRADES !!!!

2. Subsequent patrols always upgrade just BEFORE you leave port, this also applies to giving out promotions and medals, and recruiting new men......

Don't ask me way it has to be this way, I just read the "Readme's" and follow its advice

And I have never got back to port and NOT received credit for my patrol sinking's

As to Irish1958's reply that is also true if you are using SH3CMDR 2.6 as it contains a sabotage/malfunctions mod which mimics enemy resistance efforts to disable the U-Boot arm of the navy....So you must always whilst leaving port especially later in the war TEST your machinery.... Periscope/Obs scope.....Diesels....E motors Dive planes ETC ETC as any one or more of these systems/subsystems may not be working, slightly disabled or totally fubar'd....
