File a Complaint to Mr. Churchill

[CapZap1970]

This is the story:
November 1940, SW of Ireland, nice weather conditions and a lot of enthusiasm.
Last night I found a juicy convoy, escorted by 2 destroyers and 1 sub. The destroyers were not going to be a proble,m but the sub was going to be a PITA for my intentions. Since I was short of torps, the weather was excellent and I wanted to wipe out the entire convoy, I decided to use up to the last round of ammo I had in my sub.
I took the escorts out, they didn't know what hit them, leaving the rest of the convoy at my mercy, except for that sub. Fired all my torps and 6 ships were still trying to run away.
I surfaced and startedto engage the ships with my deck gun, sinking all of them, except for the sub... did I mention there was a sub? :rotfl:
I decided then to roll the dices and take my chances, and started firing at the sub. After many shots fired at less than 500 m, I get the message "Enemy unit destroyed". Took a look at the sub and it was leaking oil from many places and had many impact marks all over. I confirmed it was sunk by checking my log book, and it said indeed I sunk the sub.
Well, of course, I said "job well done" and resumed my way back to Kiel.
But, oh! Surprise..... after a couple of hours, a red sub icon starts moving from all the sunk ships icons on the map where the carnage took place.
Oh no, that's unfair..... SH3 said the sub was sunk, my log book says the same, I confirmed it visually and now, this rat, after repairing the damage sustained sails merrily back to a british port?.... Mr. Churchill will hear news from me!!!!!

Nope, I didn't miss it, it was the same sub. I had 3 red hydrophone contacts, after sinking both destroyers, only one was left (the sub).... My liver is still boiling...
But then again, the situation is funny too.:rotfl:

Was the sub actually there second time ?
Or just the contact report ?

It was there.... I saw the red sub icon sailing, I saw it with these eyes that God gave me and the worms will eat when I die... :rotfl: :rotfl:
Of course, when you use high TC you can see it more obviously...

Hmmm
I have had contact reports show again just after sinking but no unit
Most odd
