Yeah, it is directly modelled after the KTB's from uboatarchive.net, both in appearance and style. The actual log is just an Excel file with the header a photo copy-pasted from an actual KTB found there. The two lines running down are seperate (very thin) photos to give the illusion that text is typed over them as was done sometimes IRL. Background colour in the file matches the page colour on uboatarchive.net so that various stamps can be copied so that they appear as real stamps. Pretty simplistic really, but that's the best I can do.

Alexander Witt will go out on patrol again the near future. See how long he can last, dead is dead.

Anybody is free to write there opinion on this patrol! Don't hold back! The review I wrote is partly copied from a actual review. In that review the commander was complimened for NOT being intimidated by the escorts and attacking agressively regardless. Since I fired a few G7e beyond maximum range, I gave a slightly different twist to it. Since this actual review mentions a succesful first trip and two convoys being atacked I thought it was fitting to use it.
