NEED HELP AT "BANDAR SERI BAGAWAN"

SeaviewSkipper · 03-15-15, 01:51 AM

Hello fellow captains. It seems my superiors have sent me on a suicide mission. It's June 1945 and I'm on, what will probably be, my last patrol. I've been sent to photograph enemy ships in the harbor of Bandar Seri Bagawan on Borneo. Why? I have no idea. There's nothing special there-just a tanker, a couple of freighters, and three gunboats. But I digress.
The water is too shallow around the area to get to periscope depth, except for a small patch to the northwest of the harbor about 10 miles distant, and there were two destroyers guarding the entrance to the harbor. In a clever action I sank both of them.

The problem is that I can't get to the photographic objective point without being seen and shot at by every ship in the harbor. I've tried going in with decks-awash twice, and on the surface once. All at night. In addition, I haven't been able to take the photos-even though I get to the objective point.
Do I have to do this in daylight? That would be just about impossible without getting hammered by the guns of the merchants and gunboats.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jeff
