Ran into 3 Southampton-type CLs off the east coast of Britain, approached at periscope depth 90 degrees from their bow. One of them must have seen my periscope and/or the wakes of the two T1 I launched (both proven as duds), started firing at my direction with her deck guns...
... hitting and immediately sinking the other CL in formation (it was right between us). Tonnage thief. I got the third CL, though.
