Question 2: I'm on a 'patrol loop'. 5th time in a row being told to visit the Marshall Islands (started getting these in mid-42). I go, dutifully hang around watching seagulls for 48 hours, wait for the star to go grey and radio in, and follow all of my subsequent missions until I've got no shots left. Never RTB with an 'incomplete' on my record. But I keep getting sent back. Do I have to sink a ship in-radius during those 48 hours to break this cycle? Cause I've yet to SEE one.

Try TM 1.6, I think its incorporated in that Mod pack, if you want the stand alone fix go here and look for it:

As a last resort, I know it was an option mod in the TM 1.4 Mod pack (support folder)
I don't know if you send a report (not a contact report) when entering the designated aria but do so, normally you get a reply like "engage all enemy shipping in the aria". For some reason Sub Com wants to know exactly where you are in order for it to give you your subsequent mission. Also report your killings after it's safe to come up (sometimes it take a long time to get that new order and you're just going to have to wait until the icon turns Grey) I'm glad they don't have "be home at 22h00" curfews
I've had numerous careers and never had any repeated patrol missions yet.
Side note:

About your last entry.
Ducimus has changed the AI somewhat in his Trigger Maru Mod packs. You might want to try that one out and see if it's to your liking. If you want to see what he changed read the README.
Hope this helps a bit.
