Hi, Kaleuns,
I was watching something last night about the arctic convoys, and how the u-boot wolf packs used to wait for them between bear island and north Norway and i tried to remember if i had eve been sent to that area in sh3. As i recall i never have. So my question is has anyone ever been in that area and found convoys, and how are the convoys depicted in game, if indeed they are there?
I can't find a link unfortunately, as it was a very interesting programme. One thing i did not know from this was that those who served on the arctic convoys never got a campaign medal from the UK, They did get from Russia and are constantly recognised by the Russians, even throughout the cold war.
