Gott in himmel...she is enormous! Ze Queen Mary on her way back to North America to bring back more verdampt Canadians (or worse, Americans).

so, we close and submerge...and ATTACK!

There are no escorts so the approach, and the result, is very simple.


This is what makes it a successful patrol!

Nice.

Those liners are tough to catch usually no? Due to the high speeds the move at ?
