It was November 1941. I was patrolling the North Atlantic when I came across a nice, slow whale factory ship. Full blackout, and a rather nasty looking deck gun mounted aft. So I sank her. Went to external cam.
American flag. Did a little research and found out that American ships did indeed start arming themselves in early November. And also, a few months earlier, I came across an American microconvoy. There was a lit large tanker followed by a tramp steamer. The tanker didn't care, but the tramp steamer appeared to be taking evasive maneuvers. I came quite close, so there's no way the big guy didn't see me. Has anyone else come across stuff like this?
