Richard Lane just sent an informative photo of the Kano Maru in Kiska Harbor which I have put on the photo album. Worth seeing.

    I am a latecomer to this discussion, but I am quite interested in the history of US submarines in WWII. The Kano Maru story is intriguing, but I thought I read elsewhere that a Japanese submarine skipper claimed to have torpedoed an American submarine where Grunion was lost. It might be possible to verify this claim through Japanese naval authorities.

    OK, I just read on one of the earlier posts that the submarine torpedoed by the Japanese boat was Russian, not American, so could not have been Grunion.

    Bruce, I was glad to hear our letters to Yutaka were accepted with such emotion and he had such an enjoyable trip in Boston. Thank you for your great hospitality and making him feel at home. He deserves alot of credit for all his hard work required to assist the search team to locate the Grunion and give us all closure.

    I am trying to get ahold of Peter Stephens above this message. I had been doing genealogy and I found out his late father was a direct descendant of Alexander Millener, one of the last 10 soldiers of the Revolutionary War. Since his dad was lost in action in WWII, I thought I could send him along some information that shows his family was in the service of the US for over 200 years. Please if I could contract Mr Stephens I would like to send him some interesting information.
