Default Damage Crew were the pits.

On my forth mission after a large convoy at per depth when were pinged from an unknown sourse. We dove to 100 M and were deoth charged, As soon as we were pinged I assigned a full damage crew with WO. We starterd to take damage and I started the Damage crew (GXW) which did not start. No matter what order I gave they would not repair so all the damaged areas went from yellow to red. Iwatched as my crew turned red one at a time (I will never watch them die again I wont stay in the crew area again). What did I do Wrong?

You were still rigged for Silent Running.

You were 100% correct however that means that it was me not Benard that killed us all. Thank you sir I will not make that mistake again.....

Well, don't feel to bad. I am sure you were not the only one to discover the pro's and con's of silent running.

I know I once found out about the downside while in the heat of battle too. Well maybe 2 times but I was just testing my theory and that's my story and I'm sticking to it

Oh, I never stayed on silent running when sinking. Bernard kept crying and doing his panic speech--Loudly!

I've had the same problem with torpedo reloading. Chief, damn it, reload, you pot bellied, sausage swilling, banana hording bilge rat! But we were still rigged for silent running.
