"Really a snapshot time- almost like something you'd think you'd see in a movie, but this is real life. We are looking at a WWII victim here, perfectly preserved on the seafloor."
The physical remains of Bluefields and U-576 represent the only WWII naval battlefield off the East Coast where both the victim and aggressor are present.
Today will conclude our Valor in the Atlantic dives. Tune in for the final dive this evening as we revisit USS Monitor and E.M. Clark.
