I... I... I lost her!

Just east of Marshall Islands, april 43, lots of water under the keel.
Intercepted this small convoy:

Managed to get three hits in troop transporter, the escorts ahead got two and one torp sent after them, but they both evaded... we went down to 150 meter and was well clear of the area before they were on the spot. Torps were launched at some 3200 meters... The closest any of the escorts came to us was some 6-800 meters and as they began their search, I started to receive damagereports... Hull damaged... bulkheads... death!

Did they have secret weapons? Did we go too deep?? Never had troubles going to 150 meter before - and we had no damage before the incident.

So... what happened?

The final resting place...

Edit: it was the USS Silversides btw., as in sig, but not so lucky. A Gato-class.
