I just came across a 2 merchant convoy right at dawn. The lead
ship, a T3 followed by a Coast Merchant with a rear GUN !!!
I deceided to do a little test. I surfaced right beside them
about 900 meters and watched. The gun swung towards me
and opened fire. In about 10 minutes and the gun maybe fired
about 20 shells, not one even came close. I was dead still in the
water, not moving (a perfect target) I deduced from this that
the merchant gunnery isn't very good in Feb. 1941....
