Hmm... Indeed.

I'll believe that when hell freezes over. I recall reading that the captain goes on shore leaving the sub in command of the second officer as well.

USS Seaviper

Guys,

Thanks for your input on USS Seaviper. I am co-producer on the film... It is historical fiction loosely based on the U235 account. We opted to put the Germans and Japs on an island in the Pacific because it worked for the plot. With regard to actual goings on with re-gard to the submarine we had Tom Bowser and Lesley Waters from the USS Drum 228 in Mobile, Alabama looking over our shoulder at every turn to make sure we kept true to procedure as best we could. Our director's dad served aboard the the Drum and the Torsk during WW2 and his name is still on the roster when you walk on to the Drum.

With regard to things like the Captain going a shore and a few others, I'll see if we can get actual sources on those items. All of that was taken from actual logs and historical documents and is verifiable. In any case take the movie in the spirit it is presented, To Honor the Silent Service and bring attention to the USS Drum 228. We are also producing a documentary with never before seen interviews from a number of Vets from the USS Drum 228.

Thanks for your support on this,
MB
