Great patrol! I like the fact that you had the presence of mind to send some more fish on their way before you went deep.

I am reading a "thunder Below" by E.B. Fluckey, and in it he would often throw some torps at a merchant so that the escorts would give up depth charging earlier to pick up survivors.

Gotta love when you get rattled by depth charges liek that and your crew still manages to bring the boat home. Patrols like that, for me at least, are better than the patrols where you sink tons of ships.
