Submarine | Article - Posting | Submarine and Undersea Postings | USA | Wreck | WWII
After going missing over 60 years ago, the US submarine Wahoo (SS-238) has been found between Hokkaido (Japan) and Sakhlin (Russia) islands. She's laying at a bit over 200 ft.
Commisioned in 1942, this Gato-class fleet submarine completed six highly successful patrols, the last four, plus the fatal seventh patrol, under the command of Cmdr. Dudley "Mush" Morton. She was one of the most highly decorated US submarines of WWII, with her and her crew earning six battle stars and a Presidential Unit Citation.
