ive acutally read a number of Edward Beach's books. The active sonar pings bugged me because it was seemingly whenever they were submerged. Thats a classical hollywood gimmick to add mood or atmosphere. Thats how i interpetted it anyway. its like whenver you see a sub in any old movie, what do you hear? *ping* *ping *ping* even when theres nothing around. Call it a pet peeve, but that grates on me. The sub was too spacious in the galley/crew mess. The conning tower and control room seemed semi accurate, but the crew mess was waaaaaaayyyy too big.
