Thanks again for the warm welcome - very decent of you.
Well my latest patrol is at this stage rather hairy: After losing a crew member (sadly not Bernard) to several attacking Sunderlands (of which 3 were downed) I've dived to 90 with only 14m or so under keel to spare and am being pursued by said Sunderlands and a lone Destroyer. Hopefully I can get out to live another day. Hold thumbs for me - Im stuck in a somewhat shallow channel between Northern Ireland and Scotland (the grid name eludes me; AM68 possibly?).
Some Sunderlands calling in the Destroyer for help:
Last look before diving:
Three Sunderlands sent to the deep:
