caldrail,
I like your story. It was a fun read.
YouTube videos of Silent Hunter 5 shows some players speeding the game between waypoints, much like we can do in IL-2 Sturmovik 1946. I don't see anything wrong with either playing it realistic or speeding the uneventful parts.
Really brave men volunteered to go deep. We can be glad that the blunders of Hitler and German High Command sealed defeat for U-boats in the war. However, any reasonable person can't help but admire the strength of character for the captains and crews to put themselves at such great risk and perform with amazing skill and dedication. Only the smartest sailors were generally accepted to be U-boat crew and officers for obvious reasons. The mental toughness is amazing to endure so many things in a U-boat.
Thanks,
Clinton
