Reading the account of this engagement in the book, I'm struck by the vast difference between that and my experience. In the book they get pinged and the chief nonchalantly says "Even money they got us with that one" and nothing scary happens. I got one ping from a dipping sonar and twenty seconds later it was raining torpedoes. Also, I'm thinking that TIW reports followed immediately by explosions on the same bearing are depth charges?

It's a steep learning curve....
