Patrick;
My computer has been down since 11/13/02. I've been playing "catch-up" since getting back online.
I'd like to take you up on that offer of the MK 14-5 shots showing the EX-USS SEA DEVIL (SS-400) being sunk in 1964. Can you send them to me as attachments?
The following is an excerpt from Robert Gannon's "HELLIONS OF THE DEEP"......
"When (beeswax) manufacturing in June 1943 reached 340 tons a day from a single plant, however, it was obvious that all the bees in America couldn't produce enough wax. But a substitute was soon synthesized from petroleum." I still have a 1#
block of that synthetic beeswax.
For another example of "brisance" check the following:
