What name do you use?

I use the name of either Karl or Robert Wolff.
If I run two careers, one in a Type II and the other in a Type VII. I call it the brothers tour. See who makes it the farthest.

What name do you guys use?

I'm currently running three careers. The name for each of them was supplied by SH3 Commander.

Georg von Trapp
Mythically suggesting that the WWI submariner actually chose to accept a commission in 1938 instead of taking his family to America after the annexation of Austria.

The upside is, our crew can carry a tune on those long patrols.

Same as my username I recently read the book 'Steel Boats Iron Hearts' and he seemed like a good guy who earned the respect of his crew.

Martin Warg at present, out of Kiel, patrol 4, Oct 7th 1939. Running just one career. When I die, and I will, I'll prolly pick another SH3C generated name

Best regards.

The current name I'm using is Johann Kaufmann. I'll use that name in different careers but if I'm [he] is killed I won't use it again. I don't know, it just doesn't seem right.

Joseph "Jos" Berker set sail from Kiel on August 1st, 1939 on his first own U-boat command.
Running just one campaign at first. I'm guessing Joseph won't have racked up that much tonnage at the end of it.
