At 17 years old and mostly just getting in the way. The salt-sprayed sailors took care of the problem. But we received a lot of praise from the Yankees. And yes; a B 52 was ready for takeoff. No sea chart for the port, no pilot, and 6,000 tons of citrus on the boat. Only a military tugboat leading the way. A rescue operation that ended happily.

Just that. If you had asked me if I had been to Midway during the Cold War, I would have answered yes. October 1970.

Karl Andersson said during his first interrogation on board the submarine that he first saw a detailed nautical chart that was only used by the Swedish navy, but when Gushtjin or the political officer Besedin discovered this, they immediately returned with another nautical chart. The interview is available online but I can’t find it right now. That says it all about the crew knowing what they were doing.
