I wonder if the commander of U-760 had similar wishes... Here's an excerpt from u-boat net:
On September 8, 1943, U-760 was sailing on the surface alongside the U-262 when they were attacked by a British Wellington aircraft (Sqdn 179/C) about 150 miles out of Cape of Finisterre. The U-760 arrived at Vigo harbor and was put under the supervision of the Spanish Navy cruiser Navarra. After 24 hours the boat had not left the harbor (the neutrality laws allowed this time frame for emergency repairs and such) and it was interned. The boat was taken to El Ferrol where she remained until the end of the war.
Maybe you can sail to Guatemala, burn all your petrol on the way and report to BdU that very unfortunately the boat has no fuel left.
It'll be no more torpedoeing of ships for you, but on the other hand you might get a vessel or two with a small periscope with your pretty latina wife
That would not be too bad, I think
