Attack sequence

<HTML>We're all familiar with Hollywood's dramatic saying "fire one...fire two..." the supposed order to launch torpedoes. The command in the U.S. Navy is actually "shoot," or "match bearings and shoot." What was the actual command phrase to launch torpedoes given by U-boat commanders?</HTML>
