Transferring to a French port

Greystone · 05-20-16, 11:15 PM

It's August 1940, France is now in German hands, I'm docked in port at Wilhelmshaven after my 9th patrol, and I want to get transferred to Lorient or one of the other westcoast French ports while retaining my flotilla (2nd).
Does the game do this for me at some point by indicating such after clicking on the wall map while in port and seeing that the orders show me leaving Wilhelmshaven and returning to Lorient, etc., or do I have to request a transfer (clicking on the telephone)? Requesting a transfer, however, appears to only give me 2 choices; either transferring to the 1st flotilla or the "7th/13th flotilla".
When I was playing several years ago, I somehow ended up based in one of the French ports, but can't recall how it all went down. Thanks.
