Did American submarines even refuel at sea? I know about the U-tankers and such, but I know nothing of whether this was done in the PTO.
I don't think they did. Boats from Pearl would top up fuel at Midway; boats from Perth/Fremantle would top up at (Exmouth Gulf?) - anyway somewhere along the NW coast of Western Australia - but afaik there were no "milkcows".
