Good job Ducimus on the revamped Aleutians traffic in TMO 2.0, just wrapped up a patrol from August-October 1942 there, had a blast.Sank two lone merchants but were challenging, ran into a TF north west of Attu, sank two escort carriers(Taiyo and Akitsu) and was pushed 125 feet below test depth by her escorts aching for revenger.Found a convoy 6 days later southwest of Attu in an area I was ordered to after reporting in by radio, 5 ships two escorts, had a goob approach going but a plane showed up and spotted me, alerting escorts and forcing me to dive to avoid his bombs, they were close but missed.The escorts, a Chidori and an unknown DD/DE really worked me over for 4 hours, pushing me to 400 feet at one point, in a Tambor Class(USS Trout), damaged the new deck gun you put in for Tambor class(works nice, really like it) also damaged stern tubes, compressor, trim pump, scopes, tdc, sonar stack and sj radar.Finally lost them and tried to find them but could not.Returned home with 7 fish(5 forward, two aft) and 40,000 tons down.

TMO really made an area of operations that is often neglected actual fun to run a patrol in.good job.I was surprised by the TF though, didnt see it in the Aleutian file when opened it up via ME.
