I did it again!
After sneaking into Truk Lagoon in the Barbarinna, and sinking a freighter, destroyer, FUSO BB, and Hiryu Fleet Carrier, my boat's batteries were quite low. Rather than risk a race to the open sea on the surface or just below it (partially submerged so that batteries would recharge), I moored in a nearby Japanese boat slip. It was bracketed by three freighters, so no destroyers located it. Then I surfaced and recharged the batteries. I took awhile as time compression was restricted to 4x, but finally was able to recharge them to the point where I could submerge and escape. After departing Truk, I made my way to Midway where I was awarded the Silver Star.
