Was shifting areas of operations from the East China sea to Luzon in the Phillipines , I was about 65 miles SSE from Formosa , weather overcast and raining when the sound man reported a contact which he said was a war ship heading straight for me fast, time about 1700 hrs .Went periscope depth and waited till it came into the scope. What I saw on the horizon was Green luminescent smoke, What the hell is that thought I, worked out her course 060 and turned at right angles to get a shot off cause it looked like she was on fire . No chance this ship was an old Square Rigged Ship moving very fast ,Just like the Flying Dutchman in luminescent smoke. Who ever put it into the game has a great sense of humour . Has anybody seen it apart from me? Or has anybody seen anything else that's out of the ordinary ? love t know Cheers H
