GREAT hunting in Calais

Tool · 12-23-07, 11:22 AM

I was enroute thru the channel last evening heading towards my patrol sector in late 1939 and decided "why not swing by Calais and see what is there"..

And what do i see... 12000 tons of sitting duck along with 2 more tankers, 2 merchants and a V&W. All told, 30k tons in 25 minutes.. and the only offensive ship i see, a torpedo boat..

One fish to that 12k ton tanker is all it took, but now i'm heading home, as i only have 2 torps left and gave up even trying to sail to my patrol zone.

Oh, oh --I see a neutral ship burning. Perchance, your torpedo?

Onkle Karl will not be happy.

Going thru DER KANAL!, Sinking neutral shipping and disobeying BDU orders, i think you will be in uncle Karls office on your return, are you trying to make 48 german women widows ?

Hmm, the port is red and the flags were blue,white,red vertical bars, which according to the web is France.. and we are at war with them. The V&W had flags of England flying, as did a few other ships including the torpedo boat that was bugging me.

We shall see when i return to port i guess...
