One Fish Missed ...

This ACME News photo dated April 25, 1945 depicts a Japanese submarine attack on a U.S. Navy convoy in the Pacific. Note the tracks of two torpedoes in the water as the warships take evasive maneuvers. The "fish" at the far left looks like it is still running true toward the lead ship, while the one to the right is a clear miss, cutting across the wake of the second ship.
