Got smashed by a chain of depth charges in October 1942.

Was 210 meters deep and felt safe at that depth, like 99% of the similar situations in the past. The escort pass over me and I heard the blasts in successive blows... boom... boom... boom... getting louder. The boat started to roll and shake... rolle and shake... then massive damage reported, with massive floods in the engine rooms. The u-boat got lost by floodingm down at a whooping 465 meters deep.
