Good points. One of the flaws I thought Das Boot had was the captain never ordered any changes until after the depth charges were going off.

I always say, if you hear them speed up, or even approaching (or if you hear the charges drop):

1) Change speed (Flank is good)

2) Change course

3) Change depth

4) Go silent again

Always keep 'em guessing.
