Thank you Sergi, this drove me nuts this evening. Hopefully in the remainder of this patrol I can get the chance to try this as you say.
But this evening, I run into an unescorted convoy and had a hey day and sank five ships, used up all torpedos and then tried to get WO to man the deck gun but to no avail, F5 no workie either.
Only way I could get it manned was to go down and jump on it myself. Then went back up and then could not figure how to get them to target and fire. Nothing I tried did a thing so I ended up manning it myself and did all the firing. That at least got me familiar with shooting it. I took out three ships with it, but never did get the crew to do it.

But next time I'll give this binoc thing a try, I wouldnt have guessed.
I just kept trying using the UZO and the ship was locked with it, but no teddy bear, the crew just remained still.
