Hospital ships

Collie · 04-12-06, 05:53 AM

I was out on patrol in a Type IX in mid Atlantic last night. I had missed a convoy and had wasted precious fuel searching for it when out of the mist came a hosptial ship...

A moral dilema started,

- It was unarmed
- Clearly marked
- Alone

What should I do? I even asked my No.1 (the missus) and she said let it go, but it was under the British flag....

I sank it with 4 torps but to make matters worse it took ages to go down so the whole time I felt bad...

My reasoning was it is war and Germany is being bombed with 1000 bomber raids causing firestorms etc.

What would you have done?
