That almost sounds like you ran into the "Run-A-Way" spawn issue, where a few groups in the Campaign are not set correctly and just keep on spawning one ship every few days, and they finally gather into huge convoys, usually all DD. You get near that, and you get very similar symptoms... your patrol there, were you near the Japanese coast, or down south of Truk, say mid to late 1944 or later? Or - had you sunk quite a few ships, gone to an "advance base" for re-supply, went back out and sunk a lot more ships? Maybe a couple of patrols, and are saving on top of the other Saves?... ??
