But over the weekend, the Nautilus Live expedition from the Ocean Exploration Trust located it in 675 meters (2,214 feet) of water in Iron Bottom Sound in the Solomon Islands. > <a href=https://kra34g.cc>kraken сайт</a> > Using remotely operated underwater vehicles, scientists and historians observed “details in the ship’s structure, painting, and anchor to positively identify the wreckage as New Orleans,” the expedition’s website said. > > On November 30, 1942, New Orleans was struck on its portside bow during the Battle of Tassafaronga, off Guadalcanal island, according to an official Navy report of the incident. > https://kra34g.cc > kraken сайт > The torpedo’s explosion ignited ammunition in the New Orleans’ forward ammunition magazine, severing the first 20% of the 588-foot warship and killing more than 180 of its 900 crew members, records state. > > The crew worked to close off bulkheads to prevent flooding in the rest of the ship, and it limped into the harbor on the island of Tulagi, where sailors went into the jungle to get repair supplies. > > “Camouflaging their ship from air attack, the crew jury-rigged a bow of coconut logs,” a US Navy account states. > With that makeshift bow, the ship steamed – in reverse – some 1,800 miles across the Pacific to Australia for sturdier repairs, according to an account from the National World War II Museum in Louisiana. > > Retired US Navy Capt. Carl Schuster described to CNN the remarkable skill involved in sailing a warship backwards for that extended distance. > > “‘Difficult’ does not adequately describe the challenge,” Schuster said. > > While a ship’s bow is designed to cut through waves, the stern is not, meaning wave action lifts and drops the stern with each trough, he said. > > When the stern rises, rudders lose bite in the water, making steering more difficult, Schuster said. > > And losing the front portion of the ship changes the ship’s center of maneuverability, or its “pivot point,” he said. > > “That affects how the ship responds to sea and wind effects and changes the ship’s response to rudder and propellor actions,” he said. > > The New Orleans’ officers would have had to learn – on the go – a whole new set of actions and commands to keep it stable and moving in the right direction, he said. > > The ingenuity and adaptiveness that saved the New Orleans at the Battle of Tassafaronga enabled it to be a force later in the war. > > 웹 에디터 끝
