USS Picuda pictures
« on: July 17, 2008, 12:22:34 PM »
I now have my Flickr account up and running and have posted several pictures of the USS Picuda SS -382

There is also a Group set up for the Picuda - there is a pretty cool picture of the mouthball fleet in San Fancisco Bay showing 52 WWII subs laid up.

Nice shots of a fine boat!

One point on a picture caption: I think the thing called a gun in the picture of the Guppy Picuda is a torpedo recovery crane.
Can't fire a 5-in. shell from it, but you could really hurt someone if it fell on them!
