Do you guys practice drills on patrol

:hmm: I Only let my Crew practice the Deck gun when I have it (currently no, IIA Sub)

But I love to send myself and my crew into an Nice undeep location closeby Scapa

At night and lets take down 1 V&W Destroyer...and see if anything happens

Yup, crashdive drill as soon as U-27 is on open waters.

Yes, once we clear the Elbe estuary (and those bloomin' schnellboots!) I first do a trim dive to make sure all is OK. When we get further out and have plenty of depth I will spring a crash dive on my crew too. I might later in the patrol do a crash dive when I am ready to submerge for a hydrophone check just to keep them on their toes.
