Blasted Destroyers, they are still a pain after you sink them.

April 10th 1940, U-27 returns from her 3rd patrol. Notice the deformed stern caused by a British destroyer which rammed the boat during the patrol. The destroyer wasnt the only threat they encountered out there. RAF harrassed the boat and it´s crew with deadly hit and run attacks. The attacks cost the life of Bootsmann Herbert Kriegel.
It is rumoured that captain of the boat, Kpt.Ltn. Adolf Bummer II declined to attend the welcoming party and that he ordered his crew to do so also. When later asked why, he said "Is it right that we go and party, when he (Kriegel) lies in the coffin waiting to be layed to his final rest?". This was by far the most succesfull patrol of U-27, she sunk 9 enemy vessels for estimated 30,000grt and shot down a British Swordfish type aircraft. |

Yap...GW. I was just north of Scapa ...when I encountered it. It had the stock game skin, and some planes attacked us. She fired her AA's also, and we defended each other. She was also firing her deck-gun...LOL ? . It was a very nice moment. |

Check this out! I went to Nothend and found alot of tonnage with little or no protection:
Another passenger liner! Then the Luftwaffe showed up, and it turned into a full scale battle!

Its only stock Grey Wolves! I didnt report anything either, so the planes showed up on their own. That is so cool. I was working my ass off on slow running in the harbour, when I suddenly heard explotions and shooting all around. It really freaked me out, since I couldnt see what was shooting, and why large explotions detonated around me, and sometimes a good distance away. I didnt understand before the first german aircraft smashed into the harbour in pieces.
Cool with the subnets as well. This one really essed up my paint job:
