Damn, at first I thought "your one crazy motherf*cker" but then I saw the picture where the ship missed its front turrets.

I do, too engage DD's quite often on surface, but never, NEVER take it up close and personal.

DD's always got a jack or two up their sleeves

I think you meant an ace or two

Jacks are for Bernard.

Getting caught by a DD during a harbour raid is suicide though, no place to dive. Getting caught by 2 DDs during said raid is instant death. They ram you easily even if you're submerged.

I'm never going to Dover... again.

Yesterday I hit and sank a J&K class with a "down the throat" shot. It was our 12th day out (Nov. 41) of our 2nd Med patrol. I was getting pretty frustrated with the lack of contacts & the frequent Hurricane attacks; we're within Malta's air covage radius, and was getting ready to pack it in & go home with nothing to show for it.

About 5:30am (game time) we came across the J&K escorting a coastal freighter. I waited until the destroyer was almost on top of us & took a shot. Crash dived & on the way down I got the report that the torpedo had detonated & killed the J&K. Came up again and sank the coastal freighter with little effort. Slim pickings but at least we managed to get something...

I was having a blast in an online game with some guys in COMSUBSPAC last night and danced a little with the destroyers... I got ran over again followed by a depth charge attack, my luck keeps getting better and better!

It's hard to crash dive when you're only working with 50m of water, and when I went after that DD it was all on its own. I thought firing first always had the advantage, especially if you hit it right... like yall said those stupid things have aces spades and jacks up their sleeve to the very end
