Or better yet, me and Jürgen Prochnow.

I'm not saying I'd just give him the white cap entirely... but I might let him wear it once in a while.

Plus, when appropriate, he can do all my cursing in German for me. He's so much better at it.

Lol, SH3 Commander gave me Otto Kretschmer for a bootsmann once.

Seemed like a nice chap, although I can't say I got to know him very well. He didn't talk much.

I'm trying so hard to think of a witty comeback that still wouldn't be too obvious, and it's just not happening.

The Type VII is the archetype. It wasn't the best performer but if you had to pick one sub to represent "submarine warfare in WWII" , you'd be hard pressed to pick a more representative one.

....and for that reason it is also the most recogniseable (not taking into account different variants of course).
