I just retired as Kaptain of the U-77, and started a new career in an IXC - the U-502. I installed CCIP's Leigh light/spotlight mod before starting this career, and now that I have checked out the history of the U-502 I'm a bit worried....

"Fate Sunk 5 July, 1942 in the Bay of Biscay west of La Rochelle, in position 46.10N, 06.40W, by depth charges from a British Wellington aircraft (Sqdn 172/H). 52 dead (all hands lost).
This boat was the first U-boat sunk by a Wellington aircraft and also the first one to fall victim to the Leigh Light equipment. "
