Jmack included just about everything I could find on the web about the German device in his first post above. The USN did have a cover version, also mentioned above. The only additional information I could turn up was a reference to Fluckey's book "Thunder Below". He talks about using the USN device in a couple of combat situations. He seemed to find it useful. AFAIK, that is the only first-person account of the device in operational use.
