From the September 22, 2013, BBC News: England "Quest to solve WWII wreck mystery in Plymouth Sound."
Three years ago, sports diver Danny Daniels discovered a plane wreck in Plymouth Sound and at first thought it was a German bomber. But since then,it has been found to be an RAF Flying Boat, a Sunderland based at RAF Mount Batten.
It had crashed off Plymouth in December 1941 with 15 crew and passengers of whom only 4 survived.
Identification was made through its propeller and pieces of RAF insignia crockery.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
