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.

About the Submarine Wahoo


From the January 16, 2019, MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1944, 75 Years Ago.

"Information appearing in one of the picture magazines reveals that the moving picture 'Destination Tokyo' is based upon the exploits of the now missing submarine 'Wahoo' of which Lieut. Comm. Dudley Mortin, well  known in DeKalb, was the commander.

"The 'Wahoo'  has been reported overdue since the first if December by the Navy Department."
