It really was true (Bad weather)

Not long ago I was watching a show on the military channel called (battle of the atlantic)

It was kind of cool, but one thing that I remembered was a merchantman saying how during REALLY BAD WEATHER, they could see a u-boat not 200 yards from them and they wouldn't even be scared or worry, same went for the U-boat, they couldn't do anything.. in terrible weather everyone was just trying to survive.. I am in the middle of my 10th patrol and its operation drumbeat, I am down to 25% fuel and by this point I would of sunk at least 2-3 merchant ships.. I saw a couple, fired/wasted about 4-6 eels and i'm either too deep or too shallow and it bounces off.. Visibility is about 150 meters.., so I don't even see the target..

This entire patrol (October) is a waste.. I'm on my way back to France and I will be lucky to just get there, let alone get some tons.. I am pretty badly damaged as well. A destroyer came out of no where and hit me hard..

we shall see.. U-07 out!
