Are these guys wounded or dead?

Here's is the screen shot.



Beware of the GWX armed tug --the bastard has a grat big gun on the bow and 4 20mm oerlikons. Those gunners are better than mine.

T thought I'd take him out with the deck gun and flack gun. Had to dive as I began to lose crew. He's also not too bad at depth charging. But I think I gave him the slip.

Sorry mate, those men has gone to the eternal Rockall banks...

Exactly!

Stuff the bodies in the tubes with a bunch oil and junk and fire them off to convince attackers they've got you! Callous? Depends on your view of death I guess but if it can save the life of everyone else in the boat then well worth it IMO.

Come on devs! I want to use dead sailors as decoys in SH4!

As I learned today, a Polish First Officer of a Russian submarine, Konstanty "Macaj" Matyjewicz-Maciejewicz, "Captain of the Captains" as he was used to be called, had a patrol on June 8th 1917. They were practising crash diving and the ship refused to surface after submerging and fell down to 27 metres to sit on the sea floor. After some time without hope for any help from outside Konstanty Matyjewicz-Maciejewicz decided to try to rescue the crew. And he did rescue himself and 5 crew members as well, by...

...shooting them out from the torpedo tubes using compressed air.

I do not know if they were all the crew, possibly not, and don't know what happened to the rest. I'll have a look at some sources. I only know that the ship was surfaced, repaired and then the hero became its captain till the end of WWI.

Has anyone of you heard about the man and his achievement?

Here you got a Wiki article (only Polish version): http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konstan...cz-Maciejewicz

Unless u stuff the dead bodies in the torp tubes when u ran out of torps or unload them first underwater.

But if you bury them they will not be recorded (reported) as KIA in your mission/career files any more. It's better to take them home. There is a discussion about this a few threads below.

It does not matter if you bury them at sea or take them home there dead when you return to base they are classed as dead anyhow.

Thanks, Seth.
I see from the pinging thread, people are in trouble elswhere. This Gwx feels real. The only thing I didn't do was haul the bodies inside.
