My father in law lived this. Joined the Navy on 12/8/41 at 16 and by early 1942 was a torpedo man on destroyer escorts. His first cruises were convoy duty in the North Atlantic. He made 37 trips through the Panama Canal seeing Naval combat in both the Atlantic & Pacific theaters. It was only when he realized that I too am a Navy vet did he start to open up to me probably around 1995, I never asked he just started talking one day. I truly feel fortunate to have heard his stories first hand. We miss you Brownie. Thanks to allow serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!

They didn't listen for submarines using "SONAR". Sonar (or ASDIC if you will) was device which sent out a directional sound wave which would reflect back off of a submarine a give away the submarine's location. They used passive listening devices, known as hydrophones to listen for thing like turning propellers on submarines or torpedoes or really any sound emitted by a submarine.

my dad was a CPO on one of those ships, he said they were more afraid of the weather then anything else. these guys had balls of steel.

This was a focused generation, not confused by what a man or women is, and frankly, treated all with the respect they earned, not what someone thought they should have. I was always amazed at my parents ability to figure out complicated math faster than my fingers, and it was correct. Amazing is what I would call them.

WW2 German Submarines did not have missiles, they had Torpedoes. US Ships did not have "water bombs", they had Depth Charges.

[seanfitzgerald]

This would have been much better without the commentary. Tom Hanks and the director do a great job in telling the story, don't ruin it with the Robovoice commentary.

[rickrowell]

They are not called "water bombs". They are Depth Charges. The triggers on these Charges are set for different depths to go off according the the depth of the target (submarine)

The trouble with this story is that, although the Americans did capture a submarine with an Enigma machine on board, that happened in 1944, three years too late to make a difference. The British destroyer HMS Bulldog had captured a German sub carrying an Enigma machine and the accompanying material for decoding messages in 1941, and that actually led to the breaking of the Nazi code.
The commander of the Bulldog was Capt. Joe Baker-Creswell

[garyholmes]

It appears that the narrator doesn't know anything about ships. Harry and Dicky were Corvettes not destroyers

[jeffreywolf]

The interpretations of the actions of the captain and crew provided don't match what happened in the movie. And as noted elsewhere, the terminology from the voice over is wrong/inaccurate. Get it right, please.

[hertzair]

If you want to see a true riveting destroyer vs U-Boat film watch 1958’s “The Enemy Below” with Robert Mitchum and Curt Jurgens. The U Boat doesn’t squeal like an animal in that film.

[brianperry]

The U-boats began to surface and were ready for battle.... not one crew member on the bridge/conning tower..There just aint no way a submarine would run on the surface without a watch crew..

I served on destroyers, one was a Fletcher. I was in a hunter-killer group, a carrier and 6 destroyers or DEs. There were no windshield wipers on destroyer portholes. Cars built in the 1950s still had vacuum operated wipers. It was uncommon for Fletchers to serve in the Atlantic. They usually went directly to the Pacific because of being bigger ships, better range and more guns. Atlantic destroyers were usually Benson, Livermore, Gleaves, or older classes. It's not that hard to do proper research, but Hollywood rarely gets it right. Destroyers don't use active sonar continuously. Only when there may be a contact. Otherwise the sonar ping would draw subs to a convoy. And listening for subs required slow speed and a not too rough ocean. In a convoy, the noise of the other ships would block out most of the noise a sub would make.
My father was in WWI and WWII. Never torpedoed, but bombed several times.

Listening to this is like reading the assembly directions from furniture made in Japan

[jamesstreet]

"Water bombs?" "Anti Submarine bombs?" Come on dude, they're friggin depth charges. And German "subs" aren't German "ships." There are "subs" and there are "ships." Each distinct from the other.

[freakyold]

After going through an ordeal like this, it must have been awful knowing they would have to do it again and again.

[williamlilleston]

I only have one comment, Having served in the USN, (74-84), on both CG's and DDG's in both the Atlantic and Pacific, The scenes of the crew during the attack showed NO pitch or roll of the ship. That Fletcher would have been bouncing like a cork ! Every one would have been holding on.

[davidturk]

In the end, the destroyer was not joining the other ships, and was it was not being welcomed. It was leaving the convoy (the three escort ships had been relieved), and the troop ships were thanking them for protecting them on their Atlantic crossing.

[stevenjames]

I thought it was extremely decent of the German U-boats not to resume the attack on the convoy while the Greyhound was performing the ship's funeral service for its dead.

[Bigbassdrum]

I am confused...I served 6 years in the U.S. Navy and served on a Carrier for 18 months and at NO TIME..did I see any Lieutenant Commander running around with Scrambled Eggs on the bill of his officers cap. Only thing I remember about WWII is at one point the office of commodore was restored and at that point I know scrambled eggs on the bill of their officers hat was allowed but Hanks is a 2 1/2 striper..not a 3 striper because if he was a full Commander he could sport those scrambled eggs.
