Actually tater--in Silent Victory there are quite a few account of harbor penetration. And Wahoo went 9 miles in Wewak Harbor in water they didn't go deeper than 90 feet in. The Barb made a Harbor attack on the surface where it was so shallow they could not dive at all. And that was miles from deep water. They were lucky to get back out. The Herring was sunk in a harbor by shore batteries. Seawolf at Vigan. Spearfish(?) at a Halmahera Horbor (I think that's who and where). 6 boats ordered to enter Lingayen Gulf through dense escort screens to attack anchored ships in Very Shallow water (not exactly a harbor penetration but just as or more dangerous). And that's just off the top of my head so...

I very Respectfully must disagree on this point.
