Curious question

How did the armament crews actually get the torpedos on board the sub in the first place?

They were inflatable, so you got them all inside the sub in a little bag.

I'm from the Cleveland area originally - I've been on that boat MANY times.

Looks just like what we did on the Cavalla! Except we had to maneuver around the stairs that were installed in the forward hatch, using a torpedo skid that wasn't designed for that boat.
