I do not see the concern either. 2/3 from PH leaves plenty of fuel to make your rounds. I went from PH to Melekeok. I had just under 3/4 of a tank. Sank ships in Melekeok and exhausted all my torps. No sense going to Celebes Sea to patrol like they assigned me. I can't sink ships launching trash from my tubes . I had plenty fuel to go to Celebes Sea. Brisbane was closer than Midway or PH. I spotted a convoy and radioed in. They said I was one stud of a Skipper and can go home when I was darn good and ready. Since I was so close to Brisbane I pulled over for fuel and checked the oil under the hood. Now that I'm in the general area of Celebes Sea, I motor on over and complete my original assigned patrol. PH return can wait for now. Men, once your over there in the thick of the battles, use the refit capabilities. Return to your assigned base when you good and ready. Lets face it, SUBCOM said come back to port at your descretion...which means....you do not have to go back now, go refit in the other ports and keep on patrolling. When your ready to collect your booty and upgrade the goodies on your sub then do so. Many a Skipper did their own thing once out there looking to sink ships. Some will say, it takes forever at 2/3. TC on over...to handle the studders while in map screen and TC, zoom in on your sub and the studders should stop for you and then you can set the TC even higher. Does not take long at all to get on station from PH.

Your crew is always ready to go out and stay out. They just look at you funny and say, 'rudder rudder' .
