This particular group is a grouping of merchant vessels (hence the 8 knots). However, since an Isle Trawler is listed as "Leader", it does show as a Task Force. That is the vagaries of the game. Merchant as Leader, makes it a convoy, even it it is 12 King Georg V BB and a half-dozen Illustrious CV, it will still be a convoy. So a warship as Leader, and you have a Task Force... 
Now, as to you fellows passing by and NOT sinking perfectly valid targets, contrary to BdU instructions, and you can expect to be relieved of command upon RTB. Maybe even the possibility of being sent to the Eastern Front, when it opens... |
All U-boat captains having been noted for reporting 'ghost task forces' are hereby ordered to set course for grid square AB67 immediately.
All U-boat captains having been determined to fail to fire on merchant vessels will be relieved of command and court marshalled.
Be more aggressive.
BdU.
