As was previously mentioned, there was little effect, or little reason for US subs to operate in the Atlantic. A sub is a small sneaky attack vessel, the Atlantic belonged to the Allies and the U-boats were the threat. Also sub vs sub was nearly pointless in those days. The US subs were mainly deployed in the Pacific to do to the Japanese what the Germans were doing to the Allies.
