Nice thread.
Pics are great and well interesting. The Lagoon looks well worth a visit and may be a reason for me to clad myself in rubber. ( Legitametely this time
)
Would be great to swim around amongst those aircraft and tanks etc. Knock a few skulls around and rob a medal or two.
Crystal clear waters with no current makes it perfect for diving but i bet the place is full of Sharks. How freaky would it be to be sifting through dead bones and come face to face with a Tiger shark.

The only thing thats left is their boots, its really weird diving a wreck and just finding boots everywhere. Though if you dive the wrecks at Jutland there are huge numbers of bones lieing around, very unusual, very weird and very moving. Brings home just how many people died on each of those ships.The_Dark_Side said:
If you find human remains at Truk you are mean to inform the authorities and The Japanese government will arrange for tem to be retrevied and given a proper burial

Yes, I know. I was just curious as to what MadMan-JaMeS thought happened.
Soldato
i suppose they could but only if absolutely no water or anything was mixed in with it which would highly unlikely ! i means it been there for like 60yrs now !
Soldato
am i the only one reading this thinking oil and water don't mix?MadMan-JaMeS said:
i did fail chemistry before the flaming starts.
EDIT...Damn your eyes @ Pickers
Soldato
yer they don't mix so lets say u put both in a feul tank the engine is still gone suck up some water right ?
be rly hard to get the oil out of the water without some water getting insde it somewhere tbh !
