I had a similar experience in the Aleutians in really foul weather. I managed to approach a DD on the surface, using radar, to within 500-800 yards, directly astern Fired a MK14 and hit but no discernable damage, it didn't slow down, nor did it alter its course - eventually I fired three more - all hit, no duds - it didn't seem to even notice.........
