Quite a report to read. Amazing that she surface and successfully fought her way free of FOUR Japanese destroyers. Coming to within 50 yards of one of them that SHE severely damaged during HER desperate attack.

Later, after winning free- she radioed for assistance, Answering her pleas for assistance, the submarines TRIGGER, SILVERSIDES and STERLET all responded and formed a protective ring around the SALMON and escorted her to safety.,, from within 100 miles of the Japanese coast!

This sounds like Traveller's "Emergency Sub" mod that he did.

It was a good idea. And this shows that at least in 1944 that such a concept was feasible, and quite real.
