Yea yea, Otto, Gunter, Dick and Mush were great but what about this dude?

Only sub commander (AFAIK ) that tracked and sank another sub, while both were underwater.

Or what about this dude:

a good commander in a very underperforming submarine force (the Soviet navy in WWII) whose personnel mostly served as infantry managed a difficult though probably unsuccessful attack on the Tirpitz and managed to sink 17 German vessels in the North.
