Don't know much about WWII subs - but - in modern subs - it was relatively easy to maintain depth without forward motion... The DOW and COW had to pay attention though... The newer subs even handle hovering automatically... Then there was always the infamous "TRIM PARTY" to indoctrinate a new officer into the wonderful world of depth control...
