The reason I'm asking is, I was attacked from the edge of the horizon by the escorts of a task force. I could barely see their smoke with binoculars so I doubt they could have seen me since a sub is most decidedly smaller than a destroyer. This was February of 42'. It was mid daytime, calm seas and a clear sky. Is it possible that they could have actually seen me from that far even though all I could see was their smoke or did one of the capital ships in the task force have radar that early and alert the escorts? Basically, I want to know is this normal for TMO or a broken file?
