Godamn, there's no way to stop it now, the tans are venting and the damn engineer has put the engines on flank speed. I suddenly feel like crying, I shout (literally) DIVEEEEE!!! while compulsively pressing the D key. Now I know how girls feel at a busy junction when they take both hands of the weel, let the clutch go, stall the engine and block the whole damn road.

I popped like a cork in the middle of the defence screen and took about 8 shells in a matter of seconds. Doenitz called me an incompetent pig and told me I shouldn't be allowed to command a row boat.

I look forward to the same thing from Husband Edward Kimmel. *******s, they sit on their fat butts and don't understand the pressure out there, in the middle of the damn ocean! ) If only the damn crew would tell me when we're about to sink! I don't wanna leave my mp3 player in the cabin, while the sub goes down...
