After testing OP Cerberus :





I Finally started a career
After having some fun with a couple of Pyros





I was returning to the strait north of oarkney islands and I've picked up a warship at long distance, I was about to turn about but I decided to stay a couple more minutes to get a better idea of it's course, when about 6 or 7 more ship sound where picked up by my operator (I must remember to give him a promotion), so I surfaced, flank speed (forget the calculations, they where coming too fast and I'd no time), and when I think I was more or less in position 16 mts deep and 2 knots speed...
And they showed up




I shoot a 4 trops fan at long range, three duds..., but the last hit on the engines zone, while I was diving and heading away to avoid escorts, after an hour it was dead in the water, but no sinking, the rest of the TF had gone but one DD remains in the zone, I turn back and shoot another torp
I miscalculate and nearly miss




After another hour I was a little impacient





After another hour it sunks

No more torpedoes so I decided to return home



I think that Bernard's smart cousin (the sonar operator) will have his medal after all...
