well that is a great area to patrol early in the war!

That Dönitz is a dungbrain. Since the US entered the war he keeps sending me over the atlantic pond with my VIIC boat. If i travel "1/3 fahrt voraus" i have just enough fuel to complete the patrol and reach a milkcow. (strange... if i visit a cow before completing my mission, the orders disappear.)

The best grid was CA28 (NY). When submerged to PD i had about 2-3 metres under my keel. And the place was swarming with destroyers and those annoying speedboats. But the destroyers seemed deaf and blind. Sank a merchant and 2 of the destroyers and sneaked away unharmed.

After leaving a milchcow you will get a 'NULL' patrol grid I just continue to where I was ordered to go prior to 'docking'
