Talk:USS Grayback (SS-208)

The original DANFS entry actually described the events of 5 January 1943 as involving "survivors of a crashed B-2." I have a hard time believing a Curtiss B-2 Condor was involved, tho perhaps a Northrop B-2 Spirit will have flown thru a time-warp.... I've guessed that it would have been a B-25 Mitchell, but I can't confirm it. Can anybody help? --the Epopt 17:30, 11 Feb 2004 (UTC)

The version at [1] says "B-25", but of course no way to know if it was adjusted during type-in. The incident is apparently too minor for Morison to mention. Stan 18:13, 11 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Convoy tactics

It has been said elsewhere that the Japanese Navy did not use convoy tactics. The Grayback article indicates that the Japanese did use such tactics at least on a small scale.

What an odd thing to say; of course they did.

Grayback found

The New York Times has a new story about the discovery of the location of USS Grayback. See https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/navy-submarine-missing-for-75-years-is-found-off-okinawa/ar-BBWyxCp?ocid=spartanntp --SSW9389 (talk) 08:31, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

The bomb which hit her was a Japanese type 99 armour piercing 250 kg bomb. Japan is a Metric country. 130.233.200.170 (talk) 14:25, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
