Using SH3 Commander. Started a new career in 1939, and am assigned to Wilhelmshaven.

1) I noticed as I was leaving port, there was a very big combat vessel, (Bismarck or Lutzow class) in the harbor. It has a couple of barrage balloons attached and floating high above (very cool btw). It's parked along side the pier that has the floating drydock at the end (also cool!). However, the BBS did NOT show up on the strategic map (F5) or the tactical map (F6). It was still there when I returned from my patrol, with the same map invisibility issue.

2) I never saved within 200km of Wilhelmshaven. I did do several saves around Ireland and Scapa Flow, and one in the North Sea just before I entered the passage south of Scapa Flow. But, when I returned at patrol end, one of the freighters in dock was half in the dock, half stuck in dryland. It was also on fire.

3) I torpedoed a British Medium Cargo Vessel in the North Sea (2 fish), and resumed my homeward bound course, expecting it to sink before I got out of sight. When I as so far away that all I could see was the smoke from the engines and the onboard fires, I decided to return and wait till it sank. That took several hours of circling around, but eventually it sank, and somebody yelled, "She's going down!". Unfortunately, it did not show up in my Captain's Log, so I didn't get credit for it. Damned naval intelligence!
