Any Hunley buffs here

[Tarn Stephanos]

How many folks here are enthusists of the recently recovered Confederate sub Hunley? The men who served aboard her were brave indeed, as I think several crews before them had all died. I can't wait for the day when the Hunley is fully restored. I only wish the Monitor were as intact..

Last June Tarn while in Charleston I went to see the sub in it's giant water tank. It was fascinating and moving.

Tarn,

I watched a program on the Hunley last year that showed it being raised. It was very fascinating.

Best regards,

There is also a moving about the Hunely that I believe the network TNT put out. For a made for TV movie it was pretty good. Those where some serious sailors. I couldn't imagine crawling into that little tube.
