U50 returns from first patrol safely!!!

Kpt Marten Braun and the crew of U50 returned to Kiel after a successfull patrol. Only one ship was sunk, a 4200 ton Granville freighter. Eleven U boat badges were awarded to the men after, so I handed them out based on priority to who I thought deserved them.

Encountered a 2nd Granville on the way back to port just north of Scapa, dove down to PD and fired 3 torps, all 3 missed aft of her. Must've been a bit off with my speed calc. Damn

Feeling sullen and rather depressed during this patrol, I let the freighter slip away to be sunk another day.

Sustained minor damage to the hull when a Royal Navy Motor boat loomed out of the heavy seas and thick fog and fired on my boat with machine guns. Dove down to evade rather that try to fight it out. I'll add a Machinist officer to my boat next time, and i'm thinking on sending one of my guy's for a medical course to become the boat's medic.

Question: Does a Medic actually HEAL your crew if any of them get wounded? Or does he just stop them from dieing?
