John Moore, a Navy veteran, climbed through the old submarines hatch. It was the 70th anniversary of Japan’s surrender in WWII. He cranked up the up the radio and said “C-Q, C-Q, C-Q, C-Q,” (which means “I seek you.”) Mr. Moore was finding people to tell the story of the USS Razorback.
It was launched in WWII and fought some of the Japanese Navy at Pearl Harbor, then it went over to the East China Sea and was present at Tokyo Bay for Japan’s surrender along with the other 11 submarines that survived fighting the Japanese from the starting 64.
note-Now the submarine is in North Little Rock in the Arkansas River as tourist destination.
