S-38 (SS-143), 2nd war patrol
1942 Feb 18, Surabaya After an uneventful 1st patrol to the Celebes Sea, S-38 and her crew are ready to depart Surabaya for a 2nd patrol. There are several new faces on board and XO Pete Reed reports everyone is ready to take the war to the enemy. We have apporximately 10 days to bring the new transfers up to speed on how S-38 operates. Feb 27 We've drawn the Bashi Channel in the Luzon Straits. I don't think I could have asked for a better assignment, we should have plenty of opportunities. Route to our patrol zone in the Bashi Channel, transit time approx. 1 week. We need to be on our toes as this is a hot route all the way. 0001 Depart Surabaya 0901 Fishing boats spotted 2201 Fishing boats spotted March 3 Bad news on the radio, Perch (SS-176) is overdue and presumed lost. She should have been somehwere in this area. The crew is on edge as this information makes it way around the ship. David A. Hurt Sr. was captain of Perch. S-38 makes her way north into the Sulu Sea on or around March 3. March 5 0946 Suthern Sulu Sea, Aircraft spotted, crash dive. A/C made no attack. 1253 Surface March 6 1149 Clear sky, A/C spotted, crash dive, A/C made no attack. 1435 Surface March 7 0610 Two A/C out of the sunrise, crash dive, A/C made no attack. 1249 Surface 1307 A/C spotted, crash dive, A/C made no attack. Growing weary of the yo-yo ride, will try to ride out the afternoon at 150 feet. 1630 Battery down to 33%, surface for recharge. I don't want to get into a position where a low battery will hurt us. There shouldn't be that much daylight left March 8 0840 Mindoro Strait, heavy seas, clear sky, battery recharged to 60%. Ship spotted at 191 relative, long range. Will investigate. Thin wisp of smoke barely visible as we turn to investigate 0853 Funnel aft, 2 masts. Appears to be a tanker. And Japanese. Small Japanese tanker identifed on the morning of March 8, 1942 0902 General quarters signaled. Target's course seems to be NW at least matching our 7 knot speed. 0907 Took the boat to periscope depth. A surface attack is out of the question and I want to press this attack now because I don't want to risk running into the Japanese air force again while shadowing this target on the surface. We don't have the battery or underwater speed for an extended underwater chase. Battery is at 61%, that should be more than sufficient for this attack. 0913 The situation thus far 0918 All four forward tubes fired from roughly 800 yards. TDC solution was good. Number 3 was fired slightly aft, number 4 slightly forward. 0918xx One impact heard, one heard to smack the target's hull as a dud, and 2 seemed to go right underneath which seems odd. All torpedoes were set to 10 feet, target's draft is 15 feet. Perhaps the rough seas played a part, unsure. A fire is observed on the deck of the small tanker, yet she steams on. 0926 Tube 1 reloaded in 8 minutes, the boys are working hard for this one. Maneuvering into position for a second attack 0938 Target seems to have put out the deck fire and is constant helming in a WNW course. Tube 1 fired from ~600 yards. Torpedo impact 0938-0957 Target continues WNW at reduced speed, approx. 4 knots. Maneuvering for third attack, will soon consider surface engagement to conserve torpedoes. 0958 Sixth and final torpedo fired at this target results in our 3rd hit. XO Reed cautioned our torpedo would not have enough distance to arm as we closed to under 500 yards. We were close enough to hear the screams as she went down. That should do it. 0958xx Secured from General quarters. 1000 Surfaced and looked over our kill for survivors. After the third and final hit, the tanker sunk in a little under 3 minutes. Total time to sink after first torpedo hit, 40 minutes. No survivors were observed 1005 Long. 120 30E, Lat. 12 34N, 6 torpedoes left, 1 small tanker sunk, approx 1500 tons, resuming course to the Bashi Channel.
