Yes, they did. It actually took me several viewings to figure out exactly who made it, and who didn't in the film
When I re-read the ending of the novel day before yesterday, I had misunderstood something, and kicked myself for it. On a U-boat, Number One is the bo'sun, not the IWO. DUHHHHHH!!!! It's the bo'sun who takes care of the survivors of the other boat, not the IWO. At that moment, the IWO has taken refuge in his typewriter instead of being on deck, doing something useful.
