I understand. The Balao is probably too fine for me in 1942. I'm excited about having command of it but just wished it had been later in the war. It's December 1942 and I have already gone through the entire fleet of subs. It's okay, just not ideal. My favorite sub is the Sargo, maybe I should just start with that one next time under the Task Force Command.

I was hoping to go from the PORPOISE → SARGO → TAMBOR → GATO → BALAO. I'm trying to figure out what I could have done different to have a better chance at that progression. Any ideas? Not end patrol as often by just refueling? I started at Pearl Harbor, base of operations shifted to Midway. Maybe start or transfer somewhere else?

While I'm docked at Midway, I will activate the aft gun mod and take some R&R shore leave for the Happy New Year.

Thanks for your assistance and suggestions Redmane.
