Woahh!? Are you sure?
Never seen something like this... Destroyed conning tower is kills watch crew.
Had several occasions to prove this kind of destruction:
1942 august - Mediterranean, when 5 Sunderlands bombed me almost to death near sothwest Malta (near Pantelleria)
1942 november southeast Greenland when I was first depthcharged by convoy support and shortly after that attacked by two Catalina's. Very nasty sharp attack, straight through storm clouds.
If conning tower is already destroyed there's no place for watch crew.
Btw, Joachim Schepke died when british destroyer rammed his sub's conning tower.
