:-D
In the movie; Battle of the Bulge, there is a scene where the german generals are discussing this story about the chocolate cake, still very fresh, ( I think they may have actually eaten it) and saying if the Americans have ample resources to spend on shipping cake to their soldiers then we are lost. Something to that effect anyway.
Another story, off topic, sorta, is that some bomber crews were talking about all the different kinds of ordanance that we were dropping on germany, and one crewman said, “We’ve dropped everything but the kitchen sink!” So on the next mission, you guessed it, they brought along a kitchen sink and threw it out one of the side gun windows during Bombs Away! :roll:
Submerge question
-
Can an attacking submarine immediately submerge before combat begins considering there is no enemy destroyer like in A&A Europe?
To prevent opposing transport from loading/offloading. -
No. In AARevised (unlike AAEurope and AAPacific) an attacking sub must survive one round of combat first and can only submerge if there is no defending DD present. In other words, there is no “substalling” in AARevised.

Thank you SS.
