"American submarine on the port bow, sir. Standard depth charge attack?"

"No! Prepare to attack with torpedoes!"

However, perhaps someone in the know can answer this, but could that have been a result of FOW?

Odd I was reading an official US Navy Cronology of the PAcific war that someone Had complied. This was the entry in 1942 for january 27th.

It involves both the Seawolf and A jap sub torpedo by an American sub.

US Navy link

01/27 Tue. Submarine SEAWOLF (SS-197) delivers ammunition to Corregidor, P. I., and evacuates Naval and Army pilots.

Naval Air Station, Puunene, Maui, T. H., is established.

Japanese submarine sunk:
I-173,by submarine GUDGEON (SS-211), Central Pacific area,
28 d. 24' N., 178 d. 35' E.
