Makes me cry! They will never make it home!!!

Epic

Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor, not a submarine commander!

could do with a title change U.S Submarine warfare,!!!

My great uncle Falowski was aboard the Flyer. May he rest in peace along with all of the other men.

I live in Cleveland Ohio. The USS Cod is docked downtown in lake Erie right next to Burke Lakefront Airport. When I was a kid in the boy scouts I got to go inside the USS Cod. It is still in great condition. I know they fired the deck gun a couple years ago. Also a while ago they sailed the submarine to Erie PA for reconditioning of the hull. It is an awesome little boat. There is not much room insidr. I don't know how 80 to 90 men could be comfortable going out at sea for months of the time especially during wartime. I was very impressed by this old boat.

I used to watch the videos of submarine service on tv as a kid

Richard Kane was xo.

Sneak attack..come on...FDR wanted the USA in a war...carefully sacrificed 3000 plus sailors.

Simon Oakland 1967 "Bullet" Chief of Police!

This is the best video I've seen on the subject.

Fine business, fellas!

From sub commander in WWII to a star ship MD. "Bones" has done it all. "Dammit Jim, I am a U-boat commander. Here is a trick I learned in WWII--maybe you can sneak up on Khan."

How is it they couldn't make an underwater scope to look through in order to evade Depth Charges? They should have made mini torpedoes that could act as a Sub decoy for Planes and Ships.

Those are some Ginourmous binocs in the thumbnail...dont look like the typical 7x50's issued during the war

30000 kreigmariners lost in WW2!

Unwelcomed guests.

If the appendix bursts a person will die soon after as the fluid from the burst appendix will cause a major infection and death...

I'll believe this blessing that you're telling me that I'm gonna get today of what I feel okay

Wow that is something

If I'm to be blessed it's gonna be a surprise you'll have to surprise me

Uncanny how the sea life resembled periscopes, sea mines, and other paranoid fears.

slamming the hatches and torpedo tube breech doors at times 5:40 and 13:28 does not seem to be good submarining, it's a movie. Thank God for the Greatest Generation.

I watched these shows in the 50’s, they’re still great WW2 history that needs to be remembered.

I had a Uncle who went down with the Harder.

'dammit; jim; I'm a doctor, not a submarine comman....... wait.....'

This episode featured former WWII and Korean War Army vet film and TV character actor Gregory Walcott (Battle Cry, Mr. Roberts, Midway). Also featured was Joe Flynn (McHale's Navy).

Dealy and Morton were both very successful, but their over aggressiveness most likely got they and their crews killed. They would have been even more valuable to the war effort had they returned alive. R.I.P.

The actor who played the captain was far too arrogant in demeanor. A great episode otherwise.

I just love these sub videos......

Great series. The mock up bomber cockpit was really bad though.

Actually the first American shots fired in WW2 was on a Japanese midget submarine in Hawaii on 7th December 1941👍🇦🇺

This episode is chock full of legendary film and TV actors: Craig Stevens (Peter Gunn); Jim Davis (Dallas), Claude Akins (BJ and the Bear, Sheriff Lobo), Anthony Caruso (The High Chaparral), John Mitchum (Younger brother of Robert Mitchum - was in the first three "Dirty Harry " films)

Keety keety.....

Been watching off and on as well as having read many sub books....glad they found her...pictures show one close hit on the middle port side..never knew what hit em

The Harder has finally been found but 10 times Deeper than thought, over3,700 Feet and Sunk the way they thought, a Depth Charge landed on Her Back not far behind the Conn,

The guest never blinks. It looks like they had AI in 1958.

It's easy to see why the XO officer's hair is snow white: STRESS.

I have wondered why the sub captains rarely took a first shot at the destroyer, say torpedo at low speed, then calculate a shot at the freighter with torpedo at high speed so the torpedoes would hit at roughly the same time. Or maybe they did later in the war? Some sub captains, particularly Gerrman sub captains, did line up and fire at multiple targets before the first torpedoes hit.

Let me guess? Don't dive past 8°!

Sorry guys, you ain't getting nun!

Two notable actors Burt Metcalf (Writer and Producer for TV's MASH) and Richard Bakalyan (Up Periscope, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, et al.)

Incredible Harder was found relatively intact. If it was every found, I would have expected it to be in pieces much less recognizable as a Gato class boat. I wonder if that depth charge got captured by the cigarette deck hand railing from the destroyer countetattack. I think the IJN was rolling off 600lb depth charges by that time. "Hit em Harder" was the first submarine warfare book I read in the 6th or 7th grade. RIP to all on the 257 boat.

Morton's way was right, his will was strong, but he ended up as dead as if he had been wrong.

My dad was a seebee on gram island
