Guess the collision with a US sub theory has been forgotten

“Guess the collision with a US sub theory has been forgotten”

not only that theory- there were letters penned by the surviving crew... no mention of an attack (by the U.S. navy or other sub)

One of my former students was aboard a sub that happened to be in the neighborhood when this happened. There were rumors at the time that his sub had to have repairs in Scotland afterwards, but naturally he had nothing to say about any of it.

I am struck by how serious depth in water becomes even over what seems a trivial distance. Not 400 feet deep and rescue was impossible.
