I am uploading the dying moments of U-95 now. It is so strange how you sometimes forget what you did in extreme circumstances.

Prepare for clumsy stabiz.

No music, no nothing, just the death of a badly battered sub with nowhere to go:

Damn Stabiz, looks like Das Boot on crack!!

What were you thinking taking on a DD on the surface?

Wait a minute...Was this another Bernard movie in the making?

Hehe, its what happened after the first clip. The destroyer chased me for one (or two) days. He was doing 19-20 knots, and I was doing 20 at flank speed. Suddenly he sped up a bit and started shelling me, and I had nowhere to go. (I dont think the battered hull could take more dc`ing, so I decided to gamble. It obviously failed. In addition I did not know if I would be able to submerge again, with regards to the blown torpedo hatch.)

Has anybody else had a destroyer on their tail for that long?

I hoped he would keep his distance until we made it to Lorient. I would love to see him fight THAT crowd.

Alas ... U-95 is dead. Long live U-67!

I'm not sure, as it's hard to see, but it looks as if you still had water in your bow quarters. If so, that's why you had trouble staying on the surface and trouble staying trimmed when submerged.

Nope, no water in there. I had a small amount of water in the middle of the boat, but that was gone pretty fast.
