By the way wasent it common for the Captain to be the last off the bridge?
Yes, the officer ordering the dive first ordered the lookouts below, and made sure he was the one who dogged the hatch behind him.

Of course if SH5 is anything like it's predecessors then the diesel engines don't shut down until the boat is underwater, when in reality shutting off the engines and engaging the electric motors was the very first thing that happened when a dive was ordered. But nobody ever complains about that one, except me of course.
