Default How odd!? but still one more sent to the bottom!

Okay its the end of 39 well ok its dec 5th 39 and i'm in hartleypool (love raiding this dock) anyways i'm sat 10m off one of the walls inside the harbour when a destroyer swings in pinging away with its asdic, anyway its turning circle is dire so it ends up behind me!
with the phrase "Ping this" i fired my stern tube (no really i am that cheesy) only to see the damned thing bounce off his hull!
then explode on the harbour floor.

ok here's the wierd bit.

It holed the destroyer, she started taking on water by the bow and eventually sunk, although i never got the recognition for the kill and tbh it never showed as a wreck on my map screen either...
usually if i see a boat sink it marks it in game..
odd error but damned satisfying i can only assume that either the torpedo smashed the plating or the bubble of exploding gas cracked some bow plating on her and she took on water.

i officially sank 7 cargo ships and an armed trawler in that dock that day and that was after sinking 3 on my patrol grid not to mention some more slipping out of hartleypool too.

tonnage for patrol 47686
torpedo's left 1
deck gun rounds left 12
medals all round
