S-44
Thought this story was a really interesting one:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_S-44_%28SS-155%29 http://www.csp.navy.mil/ww2boats/s44.htm http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/...sses-s-44.html Good pics of s-44 here: http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/s...sh-s/ss155.htm Was s-44 the only s-boat lost to enemy action during the war? |

 JD PS, off the top of my head, there were about half a dozen S boats lost during the war... as well as an R class or two. |
