Crew morale/injuries depth charge attack (photos)

June 1944 in Sea of Okhotsk. USS BARB SS-220
TMO Update V2.0
100 difficult, but cams and contacts on for this patrol to change it up.

Rather intense depth charge attack, possibly worst one have had in quite a while. One Mikura Class Escort and other was a PB 46 (ex Wakatake Class). The Mikura laid some impressive patterns.. I tried out a new (well to me) DC sound effect, with the "click click" of the detonator and it was rather eerie, especially in conjunction with the "clang" (added to EAX sound sim for V2.0) when a depth charge bounces off the deck. Took some damage, but the effects were more pronounced on crew.

I had at least four crew in each compartment listed as "shaken" afterwards. Three crew, including a CPO, were listed as "broken". I noticed some decline in performance in all compartments as a result. A few extra seconds in dive time for rest of patrol, crew tired easily, took longer to rest up. Luckily, this happened near the end of time in patrol area.
