THE SCORE

SILENT AND DEEP, BUT NOT RUNNING

All is quiet aboard the U.S. Navy submarine SS-495, the USS Saddle-

back. She’s on reduced battery power, nestled in the soft mud of the

North Sea somewhere off the coast of Lower Saxony.

It is the middle of World War II. You were specially selected for this

mission. They made it sound like a great honor, to ferry a handful of ci-

vilians somewhere, in the greatest secrecy, so they could do something

that would help win the war. It was called “Objective Zebra”. It hasn’t

worked out so well.

You surfaced and took them, heavily guarded, to an island that wasn’t

on the Saddleback’s charts. They did whatever it is they were supposed

to do and came back in a tearing hurry, followed by German spotter

aircraft, and E-Boats, and inally a depth-charge tossing Vorposten-

boot from the mouth of the Elbe that nearly sunk you. Saddleback

went deep and got quiet fast, diving for her life.

Saddleback’s collapse depth was 200 meters. When you came to rest

on the bottom, amid the screaming protest of over-stressed metal, the

gage read 226. There is a meter of water in the pump room and the for-

ward torpedo compartment is largely looded. The horrible groaning of

the tortured pressure hull has mixed with another sound - something

stranger, more unearthly - from outside the Saddleback. Whatever it is,

it is like nothing even the saltiest old timers has ever heard before. And

it is getting closer. What the hell did those civilians do?

You’re trapped in a stranded submarine and you have to get the hell out

of here…before it comes in !
