Does that mean if I went to that area I might see (for example) the Bismark on the high seas? Please tell me yes, that would be sweet.

Yes and yes...

On the one hand, the various SOS type messages and reports of damage to fellow U-boats are primarily for color purposes. On the other hand, if you're running GWX with a mod (such as WB's Mission Orders 1.2) you'll be alerted via radio message to actual scripted events that are about to take place.
