This must be my all time shortest career.

Glad to hear that you're ready for the challenge, Subnerd. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or anything. I might not be very helpful, though. I have a fairly odd method of conducting attacks.

Good Hunting!

I guess the lesson is never start a patrol on April Fools day...going by your screenshot.

But don't feel bad. I once started the second patrol of a promising career by running smack into a minefield---a friendly minefield-- planted just outside of Wilhelmshaven harbour. I made the mistaking of disregarding the marker buoys. The sub was sunk. It was a short swim to shore and early retirement.

Don't feel too bad. There have been whole threads on things like "Your Stupidest Death", with most of us contributing one thing or another.

If you're bound and determined to do it yourself, here's a helpful and realistic tool that leaves Map Contact Updates on but gives you a more lifelike view of what's happening around you. Observer's Assisted Plotting Mod makes a huge difference.

Oh, and just FYI, it's "Court-Martial".

It looks like you may be joining me at the military's russian language school. Ive been told I might be lucky enough to get assigned to the German Consolate in Stalingrad.

I hear the summers are great there, but the winters are rather harsh.

Thanks for the mod link!! Will download and install today.

Yep I don'tt know how Ernst Youller ever got into the U-boat Training when he cannot even spell correctly.

Brer Rabbit I'll see you in Stalingrad!

UnderseaLcpl thanks very much for your very kind offer of help. I am slowly making my way through a couple of tutorials and should I get stuck I sure will fire any questions over to you.
