Yes, it does differ quite a bit from the report, and I had wondered about that, since I have a copy of Enright's book. Unfortunately it's in storage so I couldn't look it up, but I thought I remembered him talking about the time delay between the torpedoeing and the sinking, as well as the armor weakness and other details, and that postwar report confirms it.
I have just recently seen the
Silent Service episode on Enright's patrol, and way back then in the TV show Joe Enright was played by DeForrest Kelly,
Star Trek's Doctor McCoy!
