Deamyont, Top Intel!

Fortuantly the career I am currently using was within a couple of weeks of when you were there.

What a raid, I managed all 3 Nelsons. The one in the middle was very hard. Just steering my boat into a suitable firing possition was a nightmare. Type IXB not the boat for harbour raids!

Had to refuel on the way home as well, Alexandria is a long way from Lorient.

Brilliant raid, I recomend it to anyone.

PS, habour seabed is too shallow in places to run at periscope depth in a type IX if you want to retain hull integrity!
