An American submarine was being pursued by an IJN DD... in August 1945.

The submarine had been sent out to find out what happened to/try to recover a 3rd A-bomb the US had sent out...

This being X-files, they were shot down by Foo-Fighters/UFOs. [:D]

So, for 10 points, what was the name of the US submarine that had been sent to recover the A-bomb? (No search engines!!)

We can only assume that is a code name, since no USN sub had a name even remotely resembling that.

Of course, this may mean that fabering is also devinely inspired by the god Zeus!! [&o] [:D]

Whilest to Faber is divine, I ain't Greek and therefore don't recognize the preeminence of Zeus. Sorry, big guy.

In 1999 (or was it '98?) there was an F5 that passed between Oklahoma City and Norman and leveled my mom's apartment complex. She was at her church at the time (it wasn't a Sunday, but she was one of the deacons) and so liked to tell me "See, son, good things happen to people who go to church!".
Of course, tornadoes are almost unheard of in the area where this heathen lives... [;)]
