Anyway, I wasn't worried, it was night and I was skimming along all fine and dandy on the surface full of fuel and no torps left. Blam! Enter the spinning camera with a destroyed submarine (3% damage before from DCs). USS Balao went down.
Certainly sounds like a mine kill. Sorry your illustrious career was lost.
