So the Billfish book was worth a read? Saved a link about the Puffer's depth charge attack in October 43 in Makassar Straits.Hmmm wonder if it was perhaps same escorts delivering these damaging, prolonged, accurate attacks? Billfish was November 43 in Makassar Strait, Puffer was October 43Given same area and same time period, possible.
