wikipedia USS Moale からだけど
The enemy destroyer Kuwa was sunk by gunfire from the three ships, but Take torpedoed and sank Cooper with the loss of 191 crewmen and 13 officers. Moale suffered three dead and twenty-five wounded. Allen M. Sumner recorded no fatalities but had 11 wounded.

米側も結構死んでる。砲弾も結構当たってた?

これまでの俺の中のイメージ:
絶望的状況下で回避運動しながら主砲(高角砲)は命中を期待せずに適当に撃ってて、
魚雷がまぐれ当たりして敵が退散。ラッキー
