Today is the much anticipated release in the UK of David Mearns' The Shipwreck Hunter! In addition, there is an article by the BBC News online about one of the ships in the book, the ATHENIA. Included within the article is a list of the top 5 ships that David wants to find. Number 2 is STRONG. David is remaining steadfast in his pursuit of helping us close this chapter on the men of STRONG. At the top of my bucket list is the desire to be sitting in the control room of a research vessel (and yes, I have one in mind) watching the monitors as an ROV locates the wreck of STRONG on the sea floor of the Kula Gulf. We can then lay a plaque at the site as a memorial to the grave site that it is - and let them know they were not forgotten.

Tammi JohnsonWelcome to the blog! I'm a life long Kentuckian with a degree in Anthropology, thus a nice background in research, thanks to some great profs at the University of Kentucky. Family and historical research are what float my boat, and this project has been the heart of it for a very long time now. I welcome input and ideas for blog entries, so if you have something to contribute I'll happily post it. Archives
