My Dad and his war buddies used to tell tales of things like this on
North Atlantic convoy duty - he commanded a DE and often said that he
sometimes spent more time under water than on top of it.

Great pictures. Thanks for the link.

Had a roommate in school that had been on the Bonne Homme Richard carrier
during a typhoon. HE said they had green water tolling down the deck, and
never figured out how the DE's and destroyers survived.
