From US Naval Institute.
The USS Squalus (SS-192) sank off the coast of New Hampshire during a test dive on May 23, 1939. Twenty-six died on the diesel-electric submarine and 33 survived.
The sub was raised and refitted and recommissioned as the USS Sailfish (SS-192) and took part in all of World War II.

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.
