3) On Lifeguard missions, try to get there early and get close to the target city: you can see the planes fly over and see the bombs hit.
4) Hawk's Silent Hunter Utilities. I don't think they're available anymore, so email me and I'll send you a copy. You can cruise in a big Nautilus class; you can randomize the merchant tonnages each time you boot up; you get the proper 'S' boats (none of the ones with stern tubes saw action); and more.
I loved the Philippines in an 'S' boat; some of the best memories I have. I usually ran a captain in a different boat out of each available command...come to think of it, that's what I'm doing now in SHIII.

Hawk's Silent Hunter Utilities are still available in two places, one is at my website and the other is at the PTC website.
