There are times when a ship will take sufficient damage to sink later on. All too often we get ansy when we get 3 or 4 direct hits and the target remains afloat. If I notice the target has slowed considerably and the DD's are not on top of me, I will hit a flank bell and a hard rudder depending on the direction of the target and I usually can line up one more stern shot to finish them off. Sometimes a homing torp will be suffiecient to do them in.
