One of the most important things to know in ASW; just because there is a report of a submarine there, doesn’t mean there is one there… :roll:
:P
Ah, but to dismiss such a report without fully checking it out, is to invite a torpedo up the arse.

David Bushnell’s Turtle, the first American submarine. Built in 1775, its intended purpose was to break the British naval blockade of New York harbor during the American Revolution. With slight positive buoyancy, Turtle normally floated with approximately six inches of exposed surface. Turtle was powered by a hand-driven propeller. The operator would submerge under the target, and using a screw projecting from the top of Turtle, he would attach a clock-detonated explosive charge. This 1875 drawing by Lt. Francis Barber is the most familiar rendering of Turtle. However, it contains several errors, including internal ballast tanks and helical screw propellers.

You are correct about the turtle!!
The other two are the same sub, one is a drawing and the other is in a post battle damaged state. Clue, the damaged sub was sunk on May 31st 1942 in a harbour raid. Not going to make it too easy :lol:

OK it been 2 days...........YOU LOSE :yep:
the other pictures are of the same Japanese midget submarine that was sunk on 31st May 1942
In this regards I respect the Japanese involved in this operation,
'The bodies of the four Japanese recovered from the two submarines were cremated at Rookwood Cemetery, Sydney. Admiral Muirhead-Gould arranged for the funeral to be carried out with full naval honours, the coffins covered with the Japanese ensign and a volley fired by a naval saluting party, and he himself attended. There was some criticism of this, but the action was typical of the man and his tradition.'
You want to find out more about this here,

Sometime after this in 1942 those ashes were delivered to the Japanese direct.

Yes Kapitan we had a little swarm of them around Sydney Harbour 3 were announced but maybe there was a fourth. All launched from a mother ship. I believe there was a similiar attack on San Diego.
