Longest uneventful patrol time
My current patrol is certainly the longest uneeeventful period of time I've run into. Departed Lorient Oct 18. It's now Nov 29. During all that time, I've seen/heard just two ships. First one, 5 or 6 days into patrol, a small merchie. Then zilch until Nov 29. Got all excited at a reported sighting, only to find out it was a hospital ship. Gives you an inkling of an idea of how tiresomely dull it was a lot lf the time. The beat goes on ... a convoy's smoke must be just over the horizon.
