My first carrier!

Well done on the CV, sir. Could be a Navy Cross in the offering when you return from patrol.

Thanks for all the replies, your probably right, the Yamamoto would be cooler to sink. And jldjs, when your radar or sonar calls in a task force or a convoy and you see the first ship, lock onto it, hit f12, go to the second tab (the messages one) and there should be two buttons you could press, one for a status report being sent to command, and one for a contact report. Hit the one for contact report and wait. Command will either tell you to attack or disengage and continue with your mission. In my case it was attack at once for being a carrier.

And I just checked, and I did get a navy cross!

Very nice! I remember my first carrier. It was really a defining moment for me. Each time I sink a carrier now, I can't help but compare it to my first time... Wait, this is sounding too much like something else... I'm gonna stop.
