I think I managed to pass it once, but just barely. I let the crew do the shooting and I think I had to replace the gunner more than once.

My last patrol we shot down 18 or 19 Swordfish before the last one got the jump on us and killed my flak man. We eventually found the carrier that was sending out all the patrols but they were moving too fast for us to get in a really good position to attack from a decent range. I fired a salvo at her anyway, I figured I owed my bootsmann that much.
