The wreckage of WWII submarine USS Grayback, which was lost in 1944 with 80 sailors aboard, has been found about 1,400 feet underwater off Okinawa, Japan

It's been 75 years since the USS Grayback went missing with 80 sailors aboard. Now, an organization that searches for sunken World War II submarines has solved the mystery of where it went down.

On Sunday, undersea explorer Tim Taylor and his team at the Lost 52 Project announced that they had located the long-lost submarine on June 5 about 1,427 feet underwater off Okinawa, Japan.Last year, researcher Yutaka Iwasaki found that the Navy had originally made an error in translating the Japanese war records that detailed where the Grayback had likely sunk. All this time, the Navy's historical records had listed an incorrect longitude for the submarine's location.

_WeirdHistory_ Hello

Amazing!

“grayback” seems like a pejorative term for an old person... me thinks it’s time to cancel this sub...

Ayer ley que por usar mal un bater se hundio un submarino aleman. Que poco epico. El submarino U-1206. Yesterday law that by using a bad battery a German submarine sank. How little epic. The submarine U-1206.

Hope the family can lay they to rest.

World War II Hero Cursed Out For Driving Speed LimitJAMESTOWN, ND—A decorated World War II veteran who was still a teenager when he first saw combat and witnessed the bodies of friends being torn apart by heavy artillery was cursed at by a passing motorist Tuesday for driving the posted speed limit. 'Move it, you old fossil!' 32-year-old Brian Forsythe yelled at the man who charged into enemy fire to take out a machine-gun nest during the Allied invasion of Italy and was driving 65 miles an hour. 'Get out of the fucking left lane!' The man, 85-year-old Carl Palmer, was on his way to the local VA hospital to receive the intensive weekly physical therapy that allows him to walk despite the chronic pain of a massive shrapnel wound he sustained 67 years ago. I believe it for sure...no parody. Hitler built highways, so it’s our job as Americans to disrespect the laws put in place on them His PTSD excuse even was not taken into account
