The USS Tang was on it's fifth war patrol in the China Sea. When it came upon a convoy of merchant ships the last was fired and it circled. USS Tang was hit just after the coning tower near the engine rooms. It sunk is shallow water.
The USS TANG is located off the mainland coast of China near Oksu and Turnabout Islands. She lies in 180 feet of water, but has never "officially" been found. I imagine local fishermen know her whereabouts as most fishermen tend to run afoul of wrecks with their nets.
The captain of the USS Tang was Richard H. O'Kane. Recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor. Source: United States submarine operations in WWII, by Theodore Roscoe.
