U50 returns from first patrol safely!!!

Rather than start a new thread I thought i'd post this here as it concerns my boat, U50. My first patrol out, my attack Periscope was stuffed. I raised it during an attempted attack on a ship to discover when the lense broke the surface, the view was blurry as hell, making the attack scope an ineffective attack tool submerged. I used the observation scope instead for clear observation.

2nd patrol out last night, I'd have expected the useless engineer's in Kiel to have fixed the attack scope but no. The vision in it was STILL blurry during my 2nd patrol last night, as was also my observation scope!!! Either agent's are somehow sneaking onto my boat and deliberatley breaking the lenses on my scopes, or they're just malfuctioning!!!!

Either way, those damn Kiel repair engineer's haven't yet repaired my scope(s). If you do a scope check befor you leave, everything is fine. You only notice the scope(s) are screwed when you've been submerged at PD and pop the scope up to have a look around. If my scope's are still in ****ty condition when U-50 sails out for her 3rd patrol, some poor bugger's head is going to be on the chopping board when I return!!!!!!!
