After bragging about running the channel with out much problem I was just killed. It figuers. I dropped to the bottom like a turd in an porta pottie.
I had already lost 3 members of my party a few night before from ONE SHOT AT 4000+ meters from a Trawler hitting my deck gun = ALL DEAD
So i figuer Ill just duck and run thru the channel and all will be fine ( only 2 torps left and nothing in the aft tubes). At the mouth of the east exit( as I call it) that spot between Dover and Calais ..All hell breaks lose. While running on silent I am depth charged. First and second charge kills
my radio and sonar guy and after the second charge turns Diesel, Stern, Command and Sonar/Radio room RED> I lose any means of propoltion . I start repairs ASAP which means running OUT OF SILENT . I get enough of the ship fixed to atleast run at a few knots. After alot of hard work and ducking the bad guys..my boat submerges for no reason I can think of and Im blown up on the surface. I guess Ill avoid the channel for awhile.
