Altho to be fair I suppose lying flat out in one's bunk and holding onto something would be preferable given an option.
Nope being in the DD dropping the DC's is the preferred position. Much less chance of getting crushed to death or being stabbed with a sharp piece of U-boat.

Until that U-boats Kaluen gets really irked off by you DCing him and after you think hes dead but hes really alive and kicking, he decides to make it his personal mission to sink you, in which case he pursues your from your stern fires 2 magnetics into your prop, making you a sitting duck in the water then goes broadside and fires all 4 tubes into you then surfaces to get on the bridge and laugh as he watches you and your boat plummet to 1000+ Km of crushing water pressure just waiting to happen that will snap your bones like skinny twigs. Then youd wish you were in the U-Boat Too graphic anyone?

Ah, the idle dreams of youth.

A skilled captain would slip away.

A less-skilled captain would (if pressed) use one magnetic pistol on a steamer, under the hull, to disable the escort, then slip away.

Jerry Bruckheimer would waste two magnetics into the props (but he would add big explosions), and then fire four more (more explosions).

I do like the 1000+ kilometers idea... how far down is that?

Less Jerry. More Wolfgang.

It wasnt meant to be taken litterally.

EDIT: The Km was a typo too.
