As I reported on 30 Dec 1941, a RN destroyer scratched our conning tower while attacking. But thanks to my able command ability and cunning fox-like evading tactics, we received no further damge.

on 17 January 1942, approaching a small American convoy, I raised the scope, to see the bow of an American destroyer take up the whole of the scope view. I lowered the periscope just in time as the klotzy ship scratched the conning tower. It never dropped charges, and with my great cunning and marksmanship ,we sank a large cargo and a medium modern tanker.

Now I ask again, what's with all the scratching? Do they have orders to scratch Balz, the grear spirit of Sandokan? :hmm:

Maybe Balz should clean up the uboot when he is back in harbor?

All those itchy little bugs ....

The Allies are trying their best to do a favour and to be of help to scratch where ever they can. :rotfl:

The destroyer circled around while the merchants sank. We quietly hummed the hoochie woochie at 150 meters. Now heading for our patrol area south of Freetown.

I think it more like the Allies are giving you a "friendly" warning, as a way to try and keep you from sinking all those merchant ships.
