Erich, your link needs to be fixed. You accidentally cut off the second parenthesis, which makes it a dead link.

But you're right - it's an amazing story. There are many like that. One ship is carrying steel and sinks in 30 seconds with all hands. Another merchant eats eight torpedoes over a ten-hour period before finally going down, and a third takes one torpedo, which is a dud, and because some plates were ruptured actually floods and sinks later.

You never know what's going to happen, and it's good when the game reflects that.
