Lucky for you, probably one time you were happy to have a dud. Did they complain about the dent back at Pearl? - lol

It has been said that: “Perversion is anything I won’t do.” The same could be said for “cheating” in a single-player, non-competitive game.

In another sense, cheating is a lot like sinning: If you thought you were doing it, and you intended to do it, then you did it.

I remember that story. The secret cave with the underwater entrance, wasn't it?

If I remember right, you went out, wasted torpedoes, then went back. Torpedoes replaced, batteries fully charged, and co2 completely gone.

I have too Armistead.

I was once struck by my own fish as well. Destroyed the engine room, shafts and propellers. I went no where really really fast.

I came across a set of documents from the last month of the war. If you scroll down to Part V page 103 your going to find a very good report and detailed description of the circling incident with the Tang. I was surprised to read the 300 yard surface firing O'Kane was doing.
