Nice! Must have a Pils in honour of U-114.
Franz' story has inspired me to pick up an old AOD career, U-222 in the summer of '42. Now trailing a homeward bound convoy off the Grand Banks but was forced under by carrier planes and a pair of 4-stacked destroyers before BdU could reply to my contact report. Three troopships and a couple of tankers but didn't see the carrier. Hopefully by the time I can surface there will be a wolfpack forming!
Thanks for sharing.
Things to like about Stock AOD:
You can save when submerged;
You can save when in contact;
BdU will often call up a wolfpack if you can maintain contact with a convoy from 1941-43;
Your boat leaks when submerged;
Sunrise and sunset times in the log;
Fidos and Foxers and Hedgehogs Oh! My!
