080129-N-2555N-313 MOBILE, Ala. (Jan. 29. 2008) Information Systems Technician 1st Class Joshua Shepard works inside a torpedo tube aboard the decommissioned World War II-era diesel submarine USS Drum (SS 228) to help prepare the submarine for the upcoming film "USS Seaviper." Mighty Moments Motion Pictures will begin filming in March 2008 and later plans to highlight Drum in a documentary. U.S. submarines – which made up only 2 percent of the U.S. fleet during the war – were responsible for 65 percent of all Japanese ships sunk. Drum sank 15 enemy ships.
