On a recent patrol I stumbled accross a small convoy on the way to my patrol area.

We called it in and Pac responded "Good job X Attack convoy X".

So we did it was a Huge liner escorted by three destroyers. We decieded to attack the liner first. Fired three torps at her just to make sure. The first was a kill, second was a dud, and third knocked a hole in her bow and she went down fast.

Being a "carefull" and "experienced" skipper we crashed dived to avoid the attack by the DD's and slinked away from the scene.

Later we surfaced to report the sinking and continued on to our patrol area. After completeing that patrol I checked the log to see what other orders that Pac had in store for us.

To my dismay it read "Patrol = complete" "Attack convoy = incomplete".

Okay fine I guess we should have stayed risked the ship and lives and prosecuted the DD's. :hmm:

My question is will we get further orders or should we just return to base and get our butts chewed out ?
