here is order of the fight
The destroyer picked me up at around 7,400 yards he was on a bearing 035 on me, I through the rudder over and lined up to him bow to bow. I was going 2/3 ahead, when we were bow to bow, i called for flank. we closed down on each other to around 3,000 yards I was doing 20 knots, he was cranking out 37, as i said we were bow to bow. Once at the 3,000 mark i ordered standard and ordered a dive to periscope depth. this monouver was completed at around 2,500 to 2,000 yards. once i was steady in the water he kept coming at me but dropped to 20 knots we closed to about 1,200, and i fired my Mk 23. and the Ninikazi was history. hope that clearifies it a little better
