Okay, so Maybe it's getting too realistic...

I was playing last evening, just got to my patrol grid, it was about 2100 hours, waves up, wind blowing, but clear. Suddenly we hear ship spotted, Its a Grandville freighter getting tossed around and coming at us. I have us at a depth of 7 meters, decks awash, I get within 1000 meters, fire one off and watch it from the binoculars, it must have hit the coal bunkers because a truly amazing explosion occurred. Explosion after explosion, as I watch men getting tossed into the air.

Sinks in seconds but as I slowly approach the wreckage, there are the few life boats, I'm thinking to myself..."I actually feel a little sorry for them, just a little twang of remorse, they had no idea it was coming, all warm and snug in their beds, and what in this weather, and it's only going to get worse, I watch them as they slip from view.

I'm feeling a little low as we go back to course, actually tell my wife "that sucks this is alttle too real", and then I hear "New Message rec'd" some 30 seconds later.

I swear the message says, You know that our policy is no rescues, no one is to be picked up regardless of weather or location. We must harden ourselves to the realities of this war.

There must be Guestapo on board and reported my actions to BDU!

Bastards!
