Trivia
When the Captain refers to "Huff-Duff," he is referring to high-frequency direction-finding. This was a key method of how Allied naval forces detected and tracked German U-Boats: the Kriegsmarine's U-boat fleet maintained a high amount of radio traffic with its shore command and with each other for their Wolfpack tactics against Allied shipping. Huff-Duff allowed Allied naval ships to detect those radio transmissions and determine the location of those transmitting ships to attack them.

Goofs
One of the German U-boat commanders taunts Greyhound over the radio. This would never have happened in reality. Each Navy ship had a radio signal direction finder and if a U-Boat broke radio silence, triangulation would reveal its exact position.

Quotes
Gray Wolf: [on radio] Greyhound, good luck surviving the night.

Crazy credits
During the first part of the end credits, some black and white WW2 era clips are shown.

Gets straight to the point !!

Not sure why there's so much criticism. This was a thoughtful showing of what must have been a terrifying time for all the crews in the Atlantic It gave us nothing more than getting straight to the point kill or be killed in 24 hrs and to think the reality would have gone on for weeks . I thought the effects were great and the realism worked well , really saw what a cold , wet and very hostile place and they were stuck in a very cramped tin tub without a break . Because it was only about a day then the film is kept very short , especially compared to most nowadays. Just watch and enjoy and thank it will never be like that for any of us
