The Search for the USS Samuel B Roberts - Part 2
This video is the second of two which detail the efforts to locate the Destroyer Escort Samuel B Roberts, which was lost in battle during the Battle off Samar on October 25, 1944. She was lost along with other members of its task force, Taffy 3: the USS Johnston (DD), USS Hoel (DD), and USS Gambier Bay (CVE).
Under the command of her captain, LCDR Robert W. Copeland, the ship with just her two 5-inch guns, triple torpedo tubes, and smaller caliber guns helped fight off the Japanese Center Force which was led by the super-battleship Yamato. Suffering ferocious attacks from Taffy 3 and its aircraft, the Japanese forces suffered heavy casualties and eventually withdrew in what many historians describe as one of the greatest last stands in naval history.
This video shows the technology, method, and patience required to find what is now the deepest shipwreck ever discovered and surveyed. Part two of this two-part series covers the dive by pilot Victor Vescovo (former Commander, US Navy) and sonar operator Jeremie Morizet of France looking for, and then finding, the wreck of the "Sammy B." Remarkably, after selecting the 'best guess' heading of where the ship might be after reaching the seafloor, the ship was found after only about fifteen minutes. The sidescan sonar that Jeremie is using is a prototype long-range sidescan sonar which can operate up to 11,000 meters - a first in submersible technology.
As with previous videos, be forewarned, the video is more or less uncut and there can be rather long stretches of very little activity other than slowly moving across and scanning the seafloor, but that is what is really involved in exploration. Exploration is not an action film, it is slow, painstaking work which this video will show. However, the excitement when you actually find something like this in the vast, dark expanse of the bottom of the ocean is extraordinary.
Enjoy this video, which shows - as it happened - the discovery and survey of the deepest shipwreck ever discovered: the USS Samuel B Roberts.

    I really can’t stand this guy. I see straight through him. James Cameron beat him to the challenger deep though 😘 and I don’t like that liberal goof either. There’s really not any type of innovation that’s happened here. They’ve known how to go that deep for a long time now. You need a titanium sphere with a life support system inside wnd syntactic foam to offset the weight. That’s really essentially all. lol simple engineering. This guy just needs validation. Someone tell Him he’s the greatest explorer of all time before he has a nervous breakdown. All of these rich old men are really horrible people. They put on a front like they’re such nice guys and doing this to push forward humanity and innovate. In reality they’re the biggest narcissists on planet earth and want recognition. I don’t even want to know what’s in this man’s closet. Nobody on earth but you is going to go through all of that trouble to get their sub classed either. I don’t blame James Cameron at all for not classing. His sub was still better than yours.

    My wife's father was a gunnery officer on the Gambier Bay. He survived the sinking and spent a few days in a raft. The more I read about the battle, the more impressed I am by the heroism and sheer guts of these sailors. A good read is, "The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors", by James Hornfischer.
