June 3rd, 1944. I'm sailing back twords my harbor when I happen to realize the date. I thought to myself, June 5th at about 2300, I should see a huge convey crossing just north of the normandy beachhead. So I adjust course and find that at current speed I will be in the path of D-Day taskforce with 2 hours to spare. After some duck and dodge with patroling Clemson and V&W destroyers in the channel, I reached the area just north of normandy and set up a patrol root, looping back and forth over the areas where the invasions beaches were to be. As I sat and waited, hoping that suddenly a large convey or two full of troop transports and battleships and cruisers would appear, but I cant have all my wishes come true. With no luck I set back twords breast.
To bad...I had a mess of torpedoes waiting for the Allies. I could have saved france ![]() ~DeePsix Commander U-48
