Well, this Stinks!
Playing FOTRSU had around 180k sunk pulling into port.
Almost forgot was around August 1943, still lots of war to go! Two choices, end career and go teach at the submarine school with a promotion. Other choice turn it down loose renown and do not make rank. I tried the second option and then chose to reload and picked the 1st one. I do not like either option but that career is done now.

The S-18 is at Brisbane from April 15, 1942 until June 1st, 1943. The S-42 starts same date, and goes to August 15th, 1943. Both boats transfer to Alaska with the S-18 there the first time until December 21, 1943, and the S-42 there until January 12th, 1944. While at Brisbane, the boats do have many excellent adventures to the Solomons and Admirality Islands, as well as Bougainville, New Guinea, New Britain and New Ireland, and most of the islands between, including some Spec Ops work with coast watchers and supply runs, as well as trying to interdict the Tokyo Express late 1942... Exciting adventures to be had by all Brisbane boats!... If you chose to continue your career in August 1943, it should have given you the Alaska transfer choice, where you go from broiling your eggs in the boat at Brisbane, to making popsicles in Alaska... You sometimes get the chance to patrol to Alaska, but you do have to stop for fuel at least once at Midway or Pearl at the least... Did you see if the tilted, fouled anchor was at Dutch Harbor, Territory of Alaska?
