I think in the Pacific war US subs were heavily used to rescue downed air crews, espcially when the big b29s started bombing the home land, they would "land" in the China sea, the nearest US sub would be radioed to there position and look for them.
on a personal note...Privateer, 82nd Airborne? Very nice, Highspeed soldier, ever make it out of the plane on a real combat jump, like the few they do nowadays, mainly for show, did u get ur air assault pin or were u stricly a jump boy? Where did u get that CIB? And you have ur pathfinder badge tooo omg thats really highspeed right there, r u still in, try to get ur HALO badge, my buddy does Seals and he got dropped from that school. I know that the 82nd were heavily used in the mountains of the "stan" i wonder y when we have a perfectly good 10th mountain division being sent to Iraq, but then again some information is classified when it comes to troop deployment hahahaha
