haha, it was the Stingray. and that was a Balao Class fleet boat in the movie. actually it was the Pampanito.
I think it was all about scare tactics.
go to sea in 1941, oh yeah, you're scared of a type VII popping out and blowing you to smithereens.
go to sea today, the last thing on your mind is the seawolf popping up and blowing you to smithereens.
my point has been made
