I lost an officer my last W@W patrol as well. I had 1 torpedo left and two armed merchants in front of me, in beautiful weather. I stopped the first ship with the torpedo, and inexplicably the other untouched ship stopped behind it. I guess it was rescuing the crew?

Either way, I made a mistake of coming up at 600 meters away to deck gun them. after getting quite a bit of damage and losing my officer I submerged, came around from 1500 meters away. By this time the first ship had sunk, but the second was still sitting there. I finished it off from range.

Hmmm

Hi everyone!
Yeah Johannes Schönfeld was truly an officer.
Faithful to the reich , and faithful to me
He was respected , and very well liked of my crew.
He always listened to my crews problem , and their social life , and in the fleet.
He was truly and officer & a gentleman.
May he rest in peace .
But life must go on .
Ah "mein gott" I hope we soon win this bloody war.

I lost 4 crew members when i surfaced at night, after shadowing the merchie for hours. Unfortunately i surfaced right under the sunderland bomber. The crew was resting in front quarters, where bomb hit. I manged to dive and stop flooding at 220 metres. Im amazed the hull didnt cave in.:hmm:

BTW: StarLion45- thats highly skilled crew You have there.

I lost the three deck gun men and the WO when I was suddently attached by two Hurricanes......

their first fire burst was sufficient to do it!

I had a small fwd rest room leakage too!
