Now it´s my turn to tell you about "my" U-45 type VII B. It was comissioned June 25th 1938 under Kptlt. Alexander Gelhaar. It was already sunk SW of Ireland on October 14th 1939 by depth charges of the British destroyers HMS Ivanhoe, HMS Inglefield and HMS Intrepid. No survivors, 38 dead. Despite their fast end, they managed to sink 2 ships for a total of 19,313 GRT. Unfortunately I couldn´t find a picture of U-45

Dam, this is spooky, went on u-boat net to look for U-45, no picture but found out it was sunk in 39 by three destroyers southwest of Ireland,well whats weird about that? OK my U-45 has made it to 1940 but this afternoon before coming on here my sub was sunk by 3 destroyers off yes more or less the very same grid referance as the real U-45, god im all for realisim but that is really frightning.

I have the U-111, still lucky in 1941, the official records show:
Sunk 4 Oct, 1941 south-west of Tenerife, in position 27.15N, 20.27W, by depth charges from the British anti-submarine trawler HMS Lady Shirley. 8 dead and 44 survivors. but I am in august, so I am sweating right now..
