Bubbles Sir....were spotting bubbles!

I'm leaving Lorient in September '42. For a change I decided to do so at 1X compression, and only visually from the bridge, following my minesweeper escort. I wasn't using the nav map at all, just following my escort. Good thing I was doing so, too.

About halfway through I'd noticed a tramp steamer heading our way.

I'd expected it to stop; heave to . . . or something. After all, I'd think naval vessels had priority. Even if they didn't, you don't cross each others bows, true?

All of a sudden I noticed my escort going to back speeds. And my comfortable 700 meters follwing distance was abruptly shrinking. Quite fast, too! I had to go to back full in a hurry to kill my forward speed. And still that tramp steamer kept approaching!

Finally it passed, and I waited for my escort to continue guiding me. Hehe.

It never went to ahead again. Just accelerated backwards until . . .

So much for my escort out of Lorient! :rotfl:

Poor Bernard should never have been assigned to Lorient, it's well known it's the toughest port to navigate out of :rotfl:

What kind of undies does she wear? I can't see.
Perhaps she isn't wearing any

You can't see that black lace thingy she's wearing?

Hi and welcome to SubSim!

As for Bernard, check the first post of this thread. That's the first recorded post about Bernard and that's how I "gave birth" to Bernard and then people picked him to blame for all their misfortunates at sea.
