[CW] SOS of Marine Electric/WOOH

[Thomas Chirhart]

I remember that SAR case. I was an RM1 on duty at NMG at the time. It was a CG District 5 Portsmouth VA/NMN case with NMF Boston having a lead. It still gives me shivers up and down my spine even after all these years...

The Marine Electric came up some time ago and I found a good deal of material on the web relating to it including the complete records of the investigations. This is a very interesting site and a bit of a rabbit hole for those of interested in these things (certainly including me).
