Nailed the Aquitania!

[Wreford-Brown]

Having been sent on multiple wild goose chases by Bdu they have finally pulled an intelligence coup!

At 0430 on 7 May 43 I was cruising my assigned grid in the Med and came across the HMT Aquitania in grid CH 9361. She was steaming east extremely close to a British Task Force of a Southampton Class, Black Swan and River. I didn't check my first intercept information, assumed the Aquitania was with the Task Force and chased blindly after the Task Force.

I duelled for a while with the River and Black Swan and finally managed to sink all three warships. Being resigned to a personal trip to see Der Fuhrer to explain how I'd let the Aquitania get away, I wasn't too excited when my hydrophone operator reported a ship. I was expecting a merchant or some other small prize when the Aquitania come into view. I launched a salvo of two on a hasty bearing and hit once in the stern, sinking her in grid CJ 7427.

I'm still expecting the trip to the Fuhrer, but this time for tea and medals!
