skirich, are you playing a career in October 1944 or are you playing a single mission built around October 1944?

Its a career that started in 1941.
I was playing a typical patrol, finished it and went to a tender base to get refueled. It was mid October 1944 and I realized there is a famous battle I can join, Leyte Gulf that started around 23-26th of Oct 1944. I was near the right spot, just got a refill at a sub tender, and had time to get to the designated areas and sure enough its been true to history, dates, battle groups and locations.
Its been exciting as hell to try and take out these battle groups.
As I am just about to hit fire I realize how hard my heart is beating and laugh. Totally immersed.
