Bravo, Tim and the L52 team! This is not only deeply moving from a human standpoint, but also demonstrates the growing capability to discover what heretofore has been thought to be lost forever. Keep on keeping on! With admiration, love and thanks for all you are doing to make a difference.

The Stern 80 Fly-Through had a profound impact on me, one exactly as intended by the Lost 52 project. Seeing the entire wreck in contrast to only a portion creates a real-world experience of what went on. When you see only a portion of a wreck the level of certainty is diminished.

The Lost 52 Project is a long term exploration and underwater archeological project that is documenting and preserving the story of the Lost 52 WWII Submarines, leaving a foundation of knowledge for future generations. In conjunction with non-profit Ocean Outreach we are establishing programs and partnerships with organizations to help share the imporant work with the public.
Our sincere thanks for all the interest and continued support of the "Lost 52 Project" and "Ocean Outreach". In consideration of family expectations and the sensitive and personal nature of the underwater final resting places we seek to discover and explore, we maintain a policy of not disclosing current ongoing expedition plans and only announce discoveries once expeditions are completed and data is verified. We understand that families are looking for closure and hopefully one day all our missing submariners and service men and women will be found.

It is with great respect and reverence that we honor the memory and legacy of former president Jimmy Carter. He bravely served our country during WWII as a Naval Submariner and served onboard the first nuclear submarine. Throughout his life he embodied humility, dignity and respect for all who have served and continue to serve our country through their military service. The Lost 52 Project team is grateful for his service, his courage and his dedication to help build better lives for those in need. Jimmy Carter was part of the greatest generation who taught us about sacrifice love for our country and kindness.
Condolences to his family, friends and colleagues. The world is a better place because of his work.
