There was a couple of time out on patrol that the Schullers would pop out of nowhere and the soundings would be significantly off. Charts are pretty accurate but they are not accurately accurate.
I always hated shooting the transit box. the game was to always be on the front end of the box because 1 trip to PD would easily cause the boat to suddenly find itself at the back end of the box, especially if a new opord was coming in.
Heroes the crew is. I can't imagine the fright and the what the f*#$ was that.
I am shocked the pressure hull held up. I can't imagine wha would have happended if it was a VLS hull....
Good read brings back a lot of memories..
