Destroyer depthcharged me ....first round of depthcharges bounced us about like crazy -- damaged my conning tower so badly it couldnt be repaired -- I had no Periscopes, radio or anywhere to put watch crew.
It took ages trying to second guess the destroyer and inch away
in the end the Destroyer lost our scent and we skidaddled down to 120 meters silent running
it was a very close call  |
I can boast that I also made in into the harbour of Gibraltar once........took ages because of silent running. I even sank a tanker there.....
Getting there and away is hell because of all the patrol vessels and aircraft....Quite hostile waters...
