Just started a new patrol - AM68!!!! - south of stranraer and Belfast, Isle of Man!

As my VIIB is NOT armourplated, nor fitted with 2 88cm deckguns and 3 20cm flakguns, I think this patrol is, to say the least, a fraction dodgy.

wish me luck fellow kaleuns, valhalla - here I come!

If you should die during this patrol, some Valkyrian will come and take you to valhalla.

west of Orkneys- still drinking schnapps. No targets yet.

Oooops! Puts you pretty close to Derby House:

But it didn't actually start operations until 1941, so you might be alright, otherwise, being close to there is probably not a great idea for a German submarine. You could always paint your sub yellow and pretend to be The Beatles, they did take a detour to Hamburg early in their career, so you'd have a good cover story.

Not a bad cover story.

I've always fancied playing air guitar. If I stood on the foredeck, playing a beatles' medley, do you think I could get as far as the mersey (and more importantly for my iron cross, out again)?

meanwhile, I've got a full load of torpedoes, 20mm and 8.8cm ammo to give (free of charge) to the britisher merchant marine!

come and get it boys!

:hmm:

I'm hoping you're on the patrol sometime before '41. Or things will get substantially dodgy for you

Take comfort. If you're using GWX they ARE out to get you.
