USS Cod Depth Charge Damage
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ก.ย. 2024
- Dents on deck, overlooked for years as trival deformation, were discovered to be evidence of a WWII depth charge attack. Cod's WWII crew, attending a reunion, pointed out the dents in a four-square-yard section of Cod's deck plating that were the result of a Japanese Imperial Navy depth charge attack. Shards of metal depth charge were recovered as souvenirs by the crew. If they damage to the deck had been worse it would have been repaired by relief crews. Sun angles on the day of shooting don't do justice to the dents!

Welcome to youtube, Cod!
Thank you Battleship New Jersey. You have to visit the Cod sometime soon!
As an old Cod crewman, many years ago, BZ to the current crew for keeping our lady and her story alive!
+1 on some stories. But you guys should record your stories on video, for historical purposes. Possibly for use in the visitor center. The Cod may be important, but the men who sailed her more so.
Get busy.
Respect
Learned about your new channel from Ryan Szimanski at Battleship NJ. Subscribed- looking forward to content about the mechanicals of this sub.
Thank you! We will definitely have videos you’ll enjoy.
@@USSCodYep…Ryan provided your bearing! Looking forward to learning about the Cod!
Came here on the advice of Ryan S, looking forward to more content!
I heard about this from the New Jersey BB channel. I am looking forward to more video's.
Thank you!!!!
So glad to see this ship on youtube! in 2023 summer, was asked for things I wanted to do on my bachelor party. Made a trip to the Cod and it was an awesome day
Hope you had a great bachelor party. Thank you for again visiting! And welcome to our channel.
Welcome to YT, Cod! Now to get the other submarines onboard
Good old Ryan from NJ sent me good to see you guys have a channel now
Excited about the channel come over from the New Jersey channel thanks for the video
I came from New Jersey's channel. Now subbed to yours! Great content, well said!👍👍
Thank you!!!!
Came here form New Jersey (the battleship, not the state) happy to see another museum ship channel! Looking forward to more videos, and thank you for starting a channel.
Moving Back to cleveland for good in a few months...Can't wait to see the Cod again ...7 years too Long!❤
Another great way to tell the story of COD and her history. I am proud, and fortunate, to be part of her crew.
These videos are extremely important, because they capture information about these ships while the information is still within living memory. A time will come when noone is left alive who knew these ships when they were active, and it's important that details about them are preserved for future generations.
Thank you for preserving this piece of American history for future generations!]
Excellent video. I look forward to additional videos.
Subscribed!
Looking forward to learning about each and every space onboard!
Are they any specific compartments or areas you’d like to see?
@@USSCod I am sure you get requests for the main spaces, the same questions you get on the tour. I have a more eclectic interest. In no particular order...
The stuffing box (packing gland) for the propeller shaft. Is it now sealed or is it still a rotary seal?
The kitchen, mess deck and ward room. Getting food into the men is critical.
The heads. Opposite end of the feeding operation. How do they work?
The battery compartment. Views over the cells. I am sure these batteries are dead now (can't electrocute guests, too much paperwork).
The navigators station. Was the periscope used to take star sights?
There are literally dozens and dozens of objects and spaces. Even the most mundane of objects is worthy. Sure, the torpedo room is what everyone wants to see, but how about the Chief's rack?
What a marvelous ship to tell tales! I sit in rapt attention, waiting for the next installment.
We will definitely do videos on those areas and topics. Stay tuned.
@@WhatAboutTheBee All in good time!
Look forward to more. 🙂
That's cool! 😎
Great job keep em coming!👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video! Being depth charged while in a sub must have been an incredibly harrowing experience.
I’ve never met Paul but I would love to meet Paul
Thanks for sharing. Yes we could see it .
Love the video, please keep them coming. 🙂
I toured this sub many years ago, I want to say middle to late 90's? I am pretty sure one of our tour guides was an ex crew member of the ship, am I mistaken? I remember him telling us that when they would get back to port they would have to replace some of the wooden decking as a result of damage from those depth charges you are speaking of. Picked up a great souvenir shirt of the sub that I wish I still had! The greatest generation for sure....
Yes that’s absolutely correct. The decking would often splinter or break when the submarine was attacked.
Found your channel from my local Submarine museum: USS Batfish SS-310
She's in sad shape. We're worried about her. 😢
Nice to see you guys have a channel now. look forward to more videos!
I'm glad the Cod is around to be seen 👍
Thanks, Paul! Hope you get great pie for your efforts! :)
Amazing! Thank you!
Welcome to YT USS Cod !! Very happy to see you have your own page now. For anyone wanting to visit the Cod is moored just east of East 9th Street pier in Cleveland, OH. Visiting the Cod is just like stepping back in time to early 1945. Wartime music over the pa system, photos on bunk side tables, they even have the dining table set to feed the crew their next meal. Please visit her if you can, they've done a wonderful job. I do so hope @Drachinifel swings by too.
Thank you for the wonderful endorsement. We’re overwhelmed with how quickly people have responded to our first video. We should have some more videos uploaded sometime next week.
that still next to the rock n roll hall of fame?
Nice video. NJ subscriber
Very lucky crew and a tough boat.
nice video--well done!
It would be interesting if someone still had a piece of that depth charge and would donate it to the U.S.S. COD museum.
Yes indeed!
President Farace at his best!😁One suggestion from the "wardrobe dept"--ditch the water bottle for a Cod cup 🤣🙃🙂😝
Thank You :)
That is cool!
❤
7 War patrols?! Lucky submarine.
That's very awesome . . . Everyone who's the least bit familiar with her history already knows it, but this is proof positive the old girl's really been there, and brought her crew back home safely.
Yes!!!
These videos would be excellent edited into "shorts" format. They would then reach a far greater audience, and bring more recognition and attention to your cause. Little factoids and clips, a minute long. Keep up the good work, i love to see the content, and to be able to visit the boat!
Were there any boxes of ice cream mix on the deck also? Asking for a friend 😋
Ohhh you know top much!😮😅
Direct hit
If gone off a little deeper wouldn’t be here
Ah they hit the old codder eh
Do you have any of those shards from the depath charge?
Wish we did 😢
neat
