Recovery of the USS Cole
Very cool series of pictures. Thought you might want to check them out if you've never seen them before. It is sad to think of someone doing this to our troops but such is today's world.

The damage to the Cole looks so much more extensive when it's out of the water.

Absolutely awesome!!! And to think I thought salvaging/recovering a pleasure boat from the bottom of the lake was alot of work, please...

Wow, sink a ship to transport one.

Wow...I need an airtight engine compartment on the DCB...So they must keep everything air tight except the storage bays to sink it and not damage anything.
