Your description of being stalwart, caring and upfront is appreciated. To be honest, that describes just about everyone here at Subsim I have been privileged to get to know. There is an awesome and rather large core group here like that in Subsim.
I don't have the background in scuba diving that you and perhaps others have.. It hardly matters as at with the depths involved, scuba diving would be of no help, If the submersible is deep. I would assume it is or it would have been detected and localized by now. I also don't know if the missing submersible has a collar to mate with a deep sea rescue vehicles utilized by the U.S Navy. Perhaps others here know about that.
One thing is known, time is not on the side of any rescue attempts.
