[@albertabirdman]

@@wackyotter1235 a single hand grenade to a sub sitting on the surface isn't going to do much to actually sink the sub. The American ship firing on it, and ramming it, followed by the eventual reverse to unplug any hole to the hull, is likely the death blow to the submarine.

[@wackyotter1235]

@@albertabirdman some details were left out of the video, I am pretty acquainted with the encounter. The ramming punctured the fuel resulting in vapors permeating around the interior. By the time the grenade was thrown down the hatch, most of the sub was filled with gas vapor. Witnesses described the frag grenades explosion resulting in a significant fireball, something you wouldn’t see from a frag. Though the ship was doomed, the frag grenade did do it in. Another detail missed was 5 Germans getting taken as POW’s on the bow by a lone US sailor with a hammer

"Prepare to repel boarders" has to be one of the most terrifying things to hear. Lol

[@obiwanfisher537]

Honestly I'd rather fight boarders with guns than the fucking sword battles they had during the height of piracy. Sure, they had muskets and bombs, but when those were shot and detonated, it was big knives, swords and harpoons against you. Being shot is quite a quick death usually. But being cut into pieces, woah, that instills the fear of a million men in me. I'd rather get shot.

[@modeler308]

Sounds a lot like the movie 'The Enemy Below'. The Enemy Below is a 1957 American war film directed by Dick Powell, starring Robert Mitchum and Curt Jürgens. The movie is set during World War II and follows a cat-and-mouse game between the captains of an American destroyer and a German U-boat.

You improved so amazingly well over time. Both in animation, as well as the dubbing of the non-Eglish conversations. The only teeny tiny thing I would have to nitpick there is at 1:32 , where one sailor calls his Captain 'Sir'. As a German Sailor he probably would not have used the English designation there. But that is pretty much the only thing I could count as an 'error'.

[@Kyuschi]

Also, the command for firing torpedoes is "Los" rather than feuer, so that it isn't confused with firing the main gun or something being on fire.

That torpedo dodging scene was definitely inspired by Greyhound.

[@operative1555]

Yarnhub, you should make an animation documentary of the Jervis Bay which was a cruise liner conversion to a warship in desperation of the British fleet. On an escort mission to protect multiple merchant ships, it was attacked by Admiral Graf Spee and immediately signaled the other merchant ships to scatter and combated the Scheer with only having a similar displacement of 15,000 tons however being completely outclassed with the Spee having 11 compared to the Jervis Bay's 6 inch guns. She charged their opponent holding them off long enough sacrificing it's self letting many of the escorted ships to flee in time.
