When the Nagano Maru was launched in 1917 in Nagasaki, Japan was one of the Western Allies against Germany. Now the ship was a victim of the changing politics and different Alliances between Japan and Germany that used up Japanese people and vital resources.
Aircraft from Woodlark Island Papua participated in raids upon Rabaul. My father, who was with the US Navy's 20th Naval Construction Battalion helped build the airstrip American and Australian Air Forces flew from. Other raids from other Allied air bases in the " Rings around Rabaul" were conducted from mainland New Guinea
I don't think it will stop divers going there. Divers continue to visit the Coolidge. It looks so different from 1985 when I first visited it. If you've never been there before you won't notice

Thank goodness the collapse of the different parts didn't happen when there were Divers in the wreck.
Choose your sport and take your chances.
So when the deck plate collases won t set of the ammoʻ ?
No ammo on this wreck, but highly unlikely if it was after so many years passed. Still I wouldn't be hitting any remaining with a hammer.lol
The fish don't care about power, but humans do.
We're still doing this destruction.
Is that you Greta?
How deep is the wreck in meters?🤔
60 metres to the stern, or approx 200 feet.
Soon they will all just be a pile of crumbs on the ocean floor
