This challange is to help solve the mystery of the U-Boat U-896. Sunk approxamitly 60 miles from the coast of New Jersey. The mission specs are as follows: The boat has to be as close as possable to a type IXC/40 with a "typical" outload for 1945 with at least two or more T5 homing torpedos. There has to be a convoy called CU 58 which the U-896 was presumed to be shadowing as for which direction it was headed I don't know. The boat has to be at 60 NM or more and in a position to attack a passing convoy. Escort has to be standard for the era. More to follow.
