USS Samuel B. Roberts Found off the Philippines

Post by Rosseau »

Many of you may already have read about the discovery of this US Destroyer - the deepest wreck yet found, so they say.

Shame on me, I knew nothing of its history, but I bet the WitP-AE grogs do!

Best wishes

Let's hope she's deep enough to keep her safe from the salvage pirates. She is, after all, a war grave.
Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men, between brothers?

The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors.

Very good book about the Sammy B.

If you insrested in WWI naval fighting you can not go
wrong with Castles of Steel.
