I usually sleep okay on days I make a patrol but it's because I'll save my game and then finish it the next day.

Sometimes I'll get so wrapped up in a patrol that I'll play through it until I'm back to base. Those usually take 8-12 hours, depending on how soon I expend my torps.

Once, I played a patrol that took me 15 hours. I dozed off at 2 a.m. only to be startled awake by my WO rattling off all these "Ship spotted! Bearing xxx." I had practically sailed right into a convoy and spent the next two hours evading the escorts!

Those DD captains were probably thinking, "What's up with that U-boat? The way it's just coming at us in a straight line and constant speed, you'd think the commander was asleep!".
