I was just trying out some of the new mods, and playing the 'Wolves At War' practice scenarios. Thought I'd play the good old 'Happy Times' single mission, and was having so much fun I took some pictures. They really aren't in that order, as the first "Help!" sequence is from the tanker I sank and the later nighttime ones are from the troop ship. I got those because I ran right beneath those guys while the escorts were looking for me.

The "To the rescue" shot was from when I was looking at the escorts that join up in that mission, and I noticed the tanker I hit first burning in the distance. Couldn't resist making silly captions.

Wow, Jim, that camo really works! The right edge of the first picture was partly off my screen, and I was going to make a comment about the bow wake being out in front of the ship. The I slid it over and realized that I was looking at the painted false bow!
