In 1942 5 midget subs were launched not fare off the eastern Australian coast to target Australian and American ships anchored in Sydney Harbour. Only 3 made it into the harbour, two were sunk in the harbour and the one mentioned in this article seen on Australian TV last Sunday was missing presumed sunk somewhere off the coast.

An interesting story about how this group of amateur divers found the wreck missing for 64 years!
