Ship kills not counting

If that's a thing, that does explain the two Tankers occasion i mentioned above (as they were part of a convoy and I had sunk similar tankers in that convoy and later these two showed up on the same convoy path as if lagging behind the convoy by 20kms or so)... but one of the tankers did log while the other didn't. Regardless, this does not explain the Heavy Merchant 01 occasion, which was travelling alone and not sunk before...
