Congratulations on your kill!

Going out on my second patrol now, hopefully I'll run into more than just Dutch freighters this time around.

Congrats Slateford 5

Or a complete TF exiting the Med if you are lucky

Picked up a warship contact moving fast
Quite away out and closing
Then another
And another
Picked out the lead DD in scope and then the KGV filled the scope
Then the Nelson
Have to say took a few deep breathes
Then noticed one of the flank DDs taking an unhealthy interest
That got the heart beating a lil fast
He got so nosey had to let him have a stern torp
Then fired 2 at the KGV and 2 at the Nelson
All magnetic 1m below keel
Then went deep
Very deep and waited

All 5 hits
L class DD blew up in a huge fireball about 200m off my stern
KGV went down straight away
Nelson a while after as I tried to give the escorts the slip
They werent too happy

More that you know - especially as down to 64%HI after NOT diving when aircraft spotted
Lost my flak gunner and watch officer too so was a lil nervy at having to go deep after
lol
Thought it was just a fast convoy till saw the speed - 21Kts
Lucky for me they were heading my way too or would never have got close enough
