Then coming back to recover later, searching for the rafts, esp if patrol comes into area. Second time PT boats boxed me in while was recovering one of the rafts, couldn't dive in shallow waters nor outrun PT boat so ordered guns manned, when one spotted me opened fire and attempted to run me down, opened fire with 5 inch and 40 mm guns (gotta love the AA gun mod, makes the crew fire them at surface targets) set one on fire, which slowled and eventually sunk managed to evade the second one.

I can't seem to find that AA gun mod.
