Needless to say, the DD had no trouble finding me....
I had that happen to me too, I managed to control my depth and fire off some more torpedoes and sink another DD, unfortunately there was a crippled BB right next to me, I tried to breach at flank, then haul away on the surface. I managed to get leveled out up on top right before the BB blasted me back to the bottom for good.
