My boat is famous. Famous under the name "Radioman killer"...

Seriously now, am i the only one losing so many radio and sonar men?
I mean, i get DCed? The radiomen die. A plane is attacking? A radioman and sometimes both, die. I collide with other ships? Sometimes they DO die! (Yes, i DO slam my ship to wounded ships to finish them off, sometimes even at DDs passing above. Its an awesome way to sink em without using eels!).
In a few words, whenever i recieve some considerable amount of damage, my radiomen die.
Well, most of the time...
But still...

Perhaps the tommies have invented some new fangled bomb/DC that homes in on radio beacons, very accurately of course!

Dont know what to say except, Im a machinist sir

Tell your radioman to lie down and relax. It's being radio active that's killing him.

It's probably just a curse on your ship. Think Socko and his 1WOs

Do you expect any urgent radio transmissions while attacking - or being attacked?

I'd send him to the engines room whenever a ramming manoeuvre is necessary.

And refuse next time to let him install a porthole for 'increasing his working conditions'...

Alls I can suggest is be more cautious....

I once lost a radioman when my boat hit bottom, go figure...
