If you don't get credit for sinking them in shallow water, throw an extra torpedo at it.

I recently experience the no-credit thing as well, but for a different reason.

Started a new career, wanted to be at Scapa Flow on the 13th of October, 1939 to sink the Royal Oak. Arrived early on the 12th, shot everything up in the harbor (using Bismarck). Exited to circle the island while waiting out the clock, arrived back on the evening of the 13th - all the ships I had sunk on the 12th had respawned.

Shot them all up again, still no Royal Oak in port - gave up after waiting to see if it would spawn on the morning of the 14th when it was historically sunk by Prien. Nothing showed up I left.

But anyways, I only got credit for the first sinkings as I was on the same mission. Why they respawned I don't know, but didn't get anything extra for my efforts.

BTW cawimmer430, there's alot of good stuff in and around Scapa in Sept-Oct '39.
