When you're walking about in Bergen harbour, looking at the cruise-ships, and you catch yourself wondering how much renown you'd get for sinking them [been there, done that].

When the first thing you think about when you see a modern warship is "my God, how superior that thing is to the German u-boats of old!" [Guilty].

When you're in school and the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the bell ring is "Crash Dive!".

When you're fresh from a game of Silent Hunter III, and, walking around in Bergen harbour, you wonder what all those Americans are doing in the midst of your city - when you last checked, after all, it was August 1940!

When you hide in the bushes, thinking "oh my God, when did the RAF get their hands on 737s!?" whenever you hear passenger aircraft overhead while out walking.

...when you wake up screaming "ALAAARM!" and wait that someone screams "FLUUTEN! in return"
...when you grew a Beard and get smelly in your old clothing!
...when you insist that people adress you with "Jawohl, Herr Kaleun!"
...when you call your best friend LI!
...When you call the British "tommie"
...when you loath every "Bernard"
...when you eat whole lemmons on a regular basic!
...when the phone rings you scream "Alaaaarm!"
...when you don't mind getting wet!
...when you have vivid mightmares of being DC'ed by some Elite DD! (happed once to me)

When you hang your salami, bread, bananas etc. from the ceiling (My frig is dead?)
When you haven't shaved or showered for months (What? I am still on patrol!)
When you only travel at night (Those bees are out there!)
When you always have binoculars hagning from your neck (Smoke on the horizon!)
When you go to your doc weekly to check you for crabs (Doc I am kind of itchy)
When you get all your news form wireless radio transmissions
When you say: I spit on PGP I use Enigma!!!

When you know all the words to the U-Boot Lied ... and you find yourself singing it as you work.

When you're taking your sail-boat out for a sea trip and...

1. Wonder where the Heck the annoying band and accompanying uniformed people and Red Cross nurses are.

2. Find yourself thinking "OK now, where's my patrol grid?".
