Good Ole' BDU
Yeah.. so I encounter this convoy. I trail it waiting for the right opportunity to ambush it.. weather is perfect.. I get the convoy all lined up... Suddenly, as night falls.. the weather goes FUBAR.
Heavy Rain. THICK FOG... And somehow every destroyer and escort in the convoy managed to see my periscope while I was approaching with silent running. They must have had some damn good watchmen because I couldn't even SEE them through the fog at all. Anyway... I fired off half of my eels at them as I dived and missed each one. ![]() They depth charged me and basically pwned me left and right till my sub looked like a crumpled piece of tin foil with a HUGE GAPING HOLE in the side of the crews quarters. A couple hours later, we were able to surface somehow.. pretty much everything is destroyed except one diesel engine. Batteries are gone... I seriously don't know WHAT's holding that boat together but I'm sure that if one more bolt comes loose, the whole thing will fall into a million pieces. So...I send a patrol report to BDU and of course.. what do you think they reply ? Everyone altogether !!! "KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !" ![]() Do they even READ their Sub Commander's reports ? hehe I'm imagining that they have a tape reccorder next to the transmitter that says "Keep up the good work" in a loop.
