More type II/D love!

The IIA will forever remain near and dear to my heart because it is the boat I always begin my careers with in 1939.

I just love the Type II boat's stealthiness and its shallower draft allows it to go places other, larger u-boats fear to tread.

I think my next career will be in a IID and then move to a XXIII near the war's end.

After that, I just got to try the big boys and see what it's like to cruise halfway around the world in a type IX boat.

Still, I have to admit the VIIB is my soul-mate. I've gone harbor raiding in Scapa Flow, following Gunther Prien's historical route, and been through hell and back with my baby. She always brings me and my men home safe.

Type II is definitely the best choice for harbor raids and tight places. It's the Volkswagen of U-boats!
