Outragous and impolite for diving instead of waiting for your attentions.

I know the feeling some time ago I came across one in rough weather and the fecking son of a bitch blasting his deck gun at me. I took a lot of damage closing in then I gave him four of my best eels three of them slammed into the bitch and set that stinking Gato to the bottom.

How DARE the insolent allies oppose the Kriegsmarine!

Next time... order that Gato to stand still while you guys shoot at it.

I would really like them to stand down and wait for a calm sea so I can take pot shots at him.

I coem across one near the Malacca Straits whilst sailing out of Penang in 44. Didn't get a bead on me though cos the weather was crap. I didn't bother to sink him either cos I was chasing down a convoy.

Peh! Gato's....this is the result of the last time one dared cast their dark shadow across my path
