The player does have the option to transfer to San Diego, but that is a dead-end hole there. I might try to do that tonight, along with a "hat" test for Kal. Your making the Thames the default mission is probably why you are getting it. The game falls through all of the 'logic' it can muster, and lands there when nothing makes sense... As for the transfer stuff, yes, the player should get one last assignment at their first "home port" after they transfer to a new port - so if a player would attempt to out-smart the game, and transfer to another flotilla (which none are available with a IIB at the time), then they wake-up at the new location, but still have that assignment from when they came back in from their previous patrol, which would be in the Black Sea in this case... Catch-uh Twenty-Two-uh... again. I do not think there is a way to have the game end, and the player just has to accept that they did their duty, and are now POWs, and should just do a new career...
yes, the illogic reigns supreme.

the only use-case where a player has the opportunity to end their career in the Black Sea is if they end their career on August 25.
any other use-case will result in the default mission assignment followed by no-home-base for the remainder of the war.
