Feeling a bit lonely in 1939

Things will definatly pick up. 1939 is a quiet time initially for the U-boats and you might be hard put to find some decent catches. Now my fellow Kaluens i'm going to give you something to laugh about. I was heading up north west through the Irish sea last night in U-50 when a contact report for a Large convoy came in....in 1939!!!! Brilliant I thought to myself, time to get myself some good tonnage.

I raced into a position ahead of the convoy, and then began to move down to intercept them. Dove down to 30mtrs and expected to hear the convoy so I could asertain their location.....nothing. absoutlely nothing. The damn convoy just seemed to have totally dissapeared and I never clapped my eyes on it

I somehow LOST a large convoy in the narrows of the Irish sea guys!!!
