Thanks. I do note that a program icon shows that the VIIC came on-line rather early in 1940...maybe that needs changing.
I started out in Flotte II, VIIB, where I was assigned to Will'haven after the 'test' patrols to learn the sub, then later to Lorient where I am still based.
I think you are saying that after the end of 1940 I need to request transfer to Kiel for some 'test' patrols in the VIIC, and then can request transfer back to Flotte II and Lorient, or do I need to transfer to one of the other squadrons...maybe to Flotte VII at La Rochelle?
Interesting how carefully you have worked all this out. Impressive.
