Mohr!

holy cow.

I have only seen such an escort reaction ONCE in 1943. they ran me down to 290 meters, with very defined hull crackling sounds and a fine salt spray into the face of my chief engineer. they were probably angry over the sinking of the large rodney BB and the heavy cruiser

I still cant believe we gave them the slip.

it was the end of my boat for sure but somehow we escaped! there was only two ways out of that mess... we were either going to implode or we were going to slip away silently into the night. i have never heard so many pings in my life. it was an experience that helped me realize how truly frightening it must have been in real life.

and your picture brought back that memory i was trying to get rid of.
