I had my engines off as i would not like to attract his attention . He has stopped . 0 Knots . Whats he doing . Maybe he has broken down or something . Engines ahead slow . Ready to fire torpedo . 3000mts , 2000 mts . 1000mts . OMG he,s started up again . Now hes heading straight for me . ALaaaaaaarm.

prolly people were talking in your bow torpedo room, or someone dropped something. The destroyer prolly just either 1: stopped to let the convoy catch up or 2: listening.. for you
