Just got done talking to Rick on the phone. He said the deck needs to be replaced first, as the Navy says it is a safety issue. I asked Rick about the 5" gun, I asked where it was coming from and he said they have one, (I hope he is not talking about the giant one right outside the museum) as it is not the submarine wet mount 5" gun. Also he said he is working with the Batfish foundation with the paint job, because he heard they have enough money for it, but he does not know what is going on in that department, as to why they have not given it to the museum. So there is an update, and a new topic to stop posting in the Torsk section.
