The story

In October 1942, ComSubPac directs the American submarine Greyfish, under Commander Barney Doyle, to a Japanese convoy that includes the Shinaru, one of the Japanese aircraft carriers that led the attack on Pearl Harbor. Doyle also learns the target's escort includes a transport ship carrying American prisoners from an internment camp in the Philippines where his wife and child were being held. Doyle's second-in-command, Lieutenant Archer Sloan, tries to talk his friend into letting him handle the torpedo run, sparing Doyle direct responsibility for his family's possible death.
