At random: The USS Blenny SS 324, on her last patrol of WW II sank 63 vessels. One by torpedo and 62 by deck gunfire, demolition charges set by boarding parties or by burning. On several occasions shotguns were fired through the boats bottoms. These were all vessels under the 500 ton JANAC limit for tonnage sunk and not counted in the "official" totals or ships sunk. This is also a record for the most vessels ever sunk by a submarine on one patrol.

Subject: Voge speed spread diagram

I am looking for a picture and/or info about the Voge speed spread diagram, used on WW2 subs to aid in computing firing solutions. It was created by LCDR Voge while he was in command of USS SAILFISH in early 1942. The diagram was in graph format and was based upon 200% target length coverage with a divergent spread. Don't know more about it but would be interested in any info you might have.

Thanks,
Urge
