Default Shooting seagulls

Has anyone tried shooting seagulls with their AA gun in Wilhelmshaven?

I’ve tried but not hit any yet.

Let me know your bag.

Germany has enough enemies. Why would I want to hack off the gulls?

Why dont you sail up the Thames and aim for the houses of parliament!

Mind you would need an extremely long and sucessful career to survive from 1939 to 2009, or why not get him in Kirkaldy when he was a child and save us all the bother.

I've seen documentaries that stated they actually tried training them to fly near a submerged sub/raised periscope to help locate the uboats. Eventually they realised ASDIC worked better and started training hedgehogs instead.
