Surfacing next to a distroyer??

Chugging along I had been down at 13m for some time, I decided to surface to get some air to the boat (I was in a storm and had submerged for a more comfy ride during the night). My sonar-man had not reported any contacts for some time so I didn't even bother checking the periscope. I surfaced and BANG!!! American "c" class distroyer pounds me to kingdom come!

I say "C" Class as It was a class of vessel I've not encountered before. Will look it up and msg back!
