I'm in for the realism. How did the german uboats actually identify themselves when they returned to port? Radio, flag or flare..? When you think of it: Anyone situated on a coastal gun battery (Axis or allies) would like to know wether the dark shadow of a submarine was friendly or not... Friendly fire (or Blue-on-blue as we called it in the army) is commond, and there is a lot of stories about tragic incidents during WWII. I think this should be implemented in SHIV, i'll guess its too late for SHIII.
