Bad Paint

Playing TMO with RSRDC with a couple new add ons and was ready to start another campaign. I had some renoun points to use so I added a couple new crew members, I added the air search radar and the upgraded paint scheme to my S boat. Pretty much all the time I start out in the harbor but since this was my first patrol I decided to start at the pier.

Well the screen loads and I'm inside the boat. I go through all the keys to refresh which ones go to which station. The last key puts me outside and behind the boat. So I zoom in to get a good look at my new command and what do I see, rust covering pretty much the whole boat. It was so bad the the Navy band that was playing Anchors Away on the dock had their backs facing the boat. Even the officers and nurses waving goodbye couldn't stand the sight and had their backs turned also. So much for the renoun spent on a new paint job.

Probably one of those guys from another boat that goes around at night and scrounges stuff swiped my paint.

All that was left was to let go the lines and sail off in my rusty little boat.
