Would it be a man who could sit at a periscope (or Uzo!) and check and re-check every one of his own personal calculations then read out correct instructions to the firing party?

Would it be the man who can see what is laid out before him in his binoculars (or periscope) and then gives quick and correct orders based on his observations?

Would it be a man who could take one instant glimpse at a chart and the contents therein then reel off correct course, orders etc., depending on the situation?

OK, look, this is not a serious question at all, but I am a Kaleun who has mighty mental handicaps when it comes to calculating measurements and then the results from AOB, mast heights, target speeds and whatever else I have missed out mentioning.

From what I remember of most U-boot movies I have seen, the commander looks through the periscope then gives off readings to someone else who then gets the results computed and ready for a firing solution. I am very capable of doing this but fall down if expected to give the answers to the questions!

As a result I can no longer hold my head up high when I get all them medals they keep giving me. What shall I do?

I think the best Kaleun is one who puts forth their best efforts, regardless of their inherent shortcomings. The medals are a potential byproduct of those efforts... so whens yer gits 'em, polish them and wear 'em with pride.
