WTF!
we were no where close to land so the damage could not have come from a land based weapon.

If that occurred, in a sea area that was... better than 1k+ deep... then in all likelihood, you took a torp hit, that didn't get caught by your sonar op...
Think with mines, that they were laid no deeper than 1k deep (think propbeanie showed a screenie of just off the UK eastern sea side, of a minefield laid by them, in the... Op. Monsun : Dark thread... I believe...

), not out in 1K+... that doesn't account for the fact... that some of them, could... become unanchored where they were dropped.

as that could & did happen... I believe... seem to recall reading or hearing on 1 of the books on audio I used to listen to... about things related to WW2.
