I often play the Gramaphone or radio for the crew and it really drops fatigue levels.
Too bad there isn't a TMO 2.8 BEER mod...

I think the deck watch crew had other duties whilst submerged. As did the conning tower crew.

I ran a mission recently where I took a plastering from a pair of destroyers. I deployed decoys, got below the thermocline and changed course and was able to survive albeit with considerable damage. I had just a few torpedoes left and so, I really wanted to stay in the fight at least to get a couple of final shots in. But I couldn't do much until the crew repaired the damage. I needed to get away from danger so that I could surface, which I did. Two days later, my crew had not even STARTED fixing the damage and many of the crew members were shown to be sleeping.
WOW! I must have really worked them to death. |

Entertainment mostly. Keep in mind, crews spent a lot of time at sea. I believe one of Hardegen's patrols was 275 days. Having served in the Navy I can tell you, morale is everything.
