The CPO said that he had been depth-charged in WWl in a US sub by a German destroyer near Murmansk. This would have never happened. First, US subs did not operate there or at all in Europe then. The closest allied subs would have been British ones hunting German ships in the Baltic. Why would a US sub in WW l or ll be any where near Murmansk , which wasn't even a port then, it was Archangel? Any ships heading that way would be allied vessels with supplies for the Russians, and subs had only one use, to sink enemy merchant vessels. And what would a German destroyer be doing there, hunting subs that couldn't attack any German ships. The German fleet almost never left the Baltic or North Sea and when they did, it would be a major task force. A lone destroyer operating 1000s of miles from port in frigid enemy waters to hunt subs that wouldn't be there in the first place makes no sense.
