TDC automatic does not interpret this.

I was outside the destroyer's hydrophone range, and after she finished going in reverse, she started going forward again. And there was NOTHING, in her way that I could see. But, I've seen stranger stuff, like a Japanese battleship running over a Destroyer that was just about in position to attack my sub.
