Dan:
I watched it but was somewhat disappopinted in some of the "facts" presented.
Tom Clancy didn't get the USS SCORPION'S crush depth right;
pure guesswork on the cause of KURSK'S sinking and Is definitely NOT what USTINOV reported; photo of USS SCULPIN (SS-191) for that of USS SQUALUS (SS-192).......... I could go on and on, but
what's the use? This is the HISTORY CHANNEL!! No one said it had to be accurate......... :-))
They did mention HMCS CHICOUTIMI, for about 2 seconds, however.
