Attention, Torplexed, you are wanted on the forward casing

I was awarded my U-Boat insignia today as a reward for accepting a top secret mission.

It is a dangerous mission, and BdU forbid me to discuss it, but I can show you the chart, and for once, it is accurate, in regards to the east inlet.

I keep hearing about special missions but i never saw em yet.

Were you out on patrol and sent a status report and then got that mission? or was it when you were in base?

It's Jan 1st 1940 in my game and im in port. Just about wrapped up the south western approach (next trip should do it), have 1 of 5 warships killed at the blockade.. and finished the eastern coast.

still haven't found that dang carrier. but i did see some swordfish flying around my last trip there. Musta been somewhere nearby.

Well, that's just me being funny, it's not really a secret mission, sorry for the confusion.

@Neal, I'm not sure the Mermaid of Scapa has the same ring to it.

Torplex was kind enough to create my own sig, derived from one of his conning tower cartoons; I miss him.
