Question: WIll there be a USS Indianapolis 75th Anniversary Camo or ship discount in the Shop for this ship ? In Honor of its sinking on July 30th 1945 ? Other ships have received this Honor in the game . Please repost if you support this idea .
Holy Hallelujah!

WOW!!! [no pun intended] but that is the most misleading way to present a set of data/statistics I have ever seen.
I don’t even know where to begin. You know what. I’ll leave it up to you and your conscience. .
code dont work
Thank you Cleveland for knowing what a true treasure The Cod was. And Thank you Paul Farace for an amazing tour of the USS Cod
Agreed👏👏🤩
My Grandfather Donald Besse served aboard the U.S.S. COD patrols 2-6.
He was a GM3c
When they sunk the Destroyer Karukaya, it was crazy.
As the story goes, my grandpa knocked out a crewmate who was freaking out and screaming while they were getting depth charged.
I guess if they were going to get blown up, he wanted a little peace and quiet first.
They made it out of there, but I guess it was like pennies rattling around in a coke can, whole sub was shaking.
Awesome video
I live about 45 minutes south of Cleveland and visited her a few times; we are VERY proud and happy to have the Cod
Ok, who else would have wanted to go down in the history as the captain who sank ships naked?
I wonder if he was in his full birthday suit or had undies on etc. Though you may as well be naked for all the dignity you get from a pair of budgie smugglers (speedos) hehehe.
He could have at least worn a codpiece.
I would had never guess that a software game company would be so passionate enough to be an educator as well. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.
They aren’t. It just helps them sell more stuff to you. Their customer service effin sucks seriously bad.
I know, right? That was excellent!
@chloehennessey6813 Wow you're a fool. You're completely missing the point here.
I live in Cleveland. The USS Cod is definitely one of the city's hidden treasures. All of my friends from out of town always want to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...which I always oblige, but there's always a detour afterwards to the USS Cod museum.
Wow, I have to say for what ultimately is an advertisement for your game, that was damn good documentary. I've lived in Cleveland my whole life and visited the Cod twice but never learned her history, thank you for making this!
Always a great one to see in Cleveland, they keep her in immaculate shape, I’ve enjoyed every trip there.
Where is this in relation to the RnR Hall of Fame?
@@Raellives right next door to it. Every time I visit the HOF I stop by the USS Cod next door.
My dad took us to see the USS COD several times before he passed away 2days after my 8th birthday. I met actual veteran sailors who did patrols on her in the pacific. Veterans are to me, treasured living history books that complement a piece of WWII pacific theater history!! It's one of Cleveland's many wonderful museums!! Incredibly small as submarines go. The USS COD museum experiences are among some great childhood memories.
This is the second Gato class museum ship I’ve heard of. The first being the USS Silversides in Muskegon, Michigan.
@@benpurcell4935, you should try the USS Drum, SS-228, the OLDEST surviving Gato class submarine. She is part of the USS Alabama memorial park in Mobile, Alabama.
To the crew(s) of the USS COD, Thank you for your service. The only reason the USAF got me was the fact that the naval recruiting office was out to lunch..... otherwise I was small enough and intelligent enough to have qualified for "The Silent Service" when I was looking to join the Navy back in '64. USAF recruiters were in the office next door ! Such is Fate.
Same thing for me in 77.
The USS Silversides submarine is now a museum based near Lake Michigan in Muskegon, Michigan. I have visited her several times.
same class as well
Absolutely Beautiful.
Thank you World Of Warships for these very emotional and inspiring documentaries about ships that were Legends.
The USS Cobia is another Gato-class Diesel-electric sub that saw service in WWII, now turned into a floating museum, up in Manitowoc, WI. I was a tour guide on it for a while.
I visited Cleveland and went aboard the Cod about 10 years ago. I wore my Navy submarine ball cap and was amazed at the welcome I received... they rolled out the red carpet for a fellow dolphin wearing submariner. Ironic that her hull number is 224 because my old sub had hull number 624. The Cod does not have a “hole” punched in her like other tourist subs and you really have to be careful when you board her. I thank all that welcomed me on that day and I especially thank everyone that keeps her preserved.
Thank you for your service.
How many U-Boats do you have?
Kriegsmarine: Yes
71 in operation at any
give time
@@thesandtiger a very good number
@@1mailpigeon1 Not very good odds of coming home though. 70% of them were sunk.
@@Nekulturny and only sunk about 1% of us navy merchant fleet
@@1mailpigeon1 the Americans sung about 80 percent of the Japanese merchant ship flee
Really loved this video. But I find it just a little interesting that no mention was made of the USS Gar, which the Cod replaced at that same berthing location in Cleveland. When I was a kid in Cleveland, just shy of 70 years ago, my dad took me aboard her several times. That was a tight little boat. Been on the Cod too. Hope to again soon.
Crewman: captain can you please put some pants on?
Captain: nuts .
nuts .
Butts.
Nuts!
My mother’s cousin commanded three subs in WWII. He retired as a Rear Admiral, Sank about 55K tons. His last command was the USS Cutlass. It is still a war ready vessel, part of the Taiwanese navy, the Sea lion. In 2019 she got a $19M retrofit. Mark Felton has done a short video on her. My cousin was Herbert Lollis Jukes, USNA Class of ‘32
OUTSTANDING Presentation of Cod!! I've held a lifelong love of submarine warfare in general and WWII, Pacific theater submarine warfare in particular. My Dad was a Marine Corps pilot in WWII and Korea, and that influenced my decision to go Army aviation for Vietnam, otherwise I'm sure I would have been a Bubblehead. I wrote about submarine warfare in several of my (historically accurate fiction) books in the series, "The Indomitable Patriot," "They Stood Above The Rest," and "The Patriot Chronicles: Operation Crimson Tide."
I subscribed to the channel and look forward to watching the rest of the shows. I also wish to compliment the producers for their accuracy in this show. It was a hard life aboard the "Pig Boats" and you documented it exceptionally well.........
I'm 12 turning 13 in April and I've been watching these since I was 9 and I still love this
It can’t be a coincidence that I was listening to a book on audible featuring a Gato class and now I get a recommended video for one
Ur eyes are opening.
What book?
@@jordanhall8691 Thunder Below, and it’s quite good!
I was just listening to the story about cpt. Flucky and the USS Barb. Does guys in WWII pig boats were real heroes.
USS COD is actually in Erie PA getting a good ol overhaul to keep her floating
Wow! The comparable stats between the Atlantic and Pacific merchant kills is astonishing! I'm assuming a lot had to do with the fact that the allies compromised German communications. Very Cool! Thank you for sharing!
When you go fishing and suddenly realized you just fished up a cod...
Sinking a ship while naked is the most bad ass thing ever...
Thank you to all the crews of the Cod and the good people of Cleveland ihope to visit the Cod one day.
Great video. To my late friend Leo Davis who served aboard the Cod during WWII. We miss you buddy. Leo ashes were shot out of a torpedo tube at the North Pole buy the USS New Mexico a couple of years ago.
Lee Rebel Davis... my good friend and Cod crewman on all seven Cod war patrols
Got to get a tour of her today with Paul, what an honor it was to step onto a piece of American history. Thank you to all who served on this vessel and all our American heroes who sacrificed for this great country.
For a end of middle school trip we went to see the USS Cod and some aquarium near there it was really cool to be inside the cod and try not to hit my head on everything
Wish measurements weren't in metres; however, excellent. Great visitor attraction in Cleveland where USS Cod is permanently docked on North Coast Harbor.
As a Canadian, I'm fine with metres. I just find it offensive that they'd measure the diesels in horsepower, when everybody knows that diesels are all about TORQUE!
Now come on, I want to see a naval legends on the fish
As a nuke submarine sailor I've always been in awe of the men of the ww2 submarines. Thanks for a wonderful video.
Thank you for posting such great videos about such legendary ships. Please keep up the great work I Thoroughly enjoy all of the videos you’ve made!
I had a school trip from Dennison Ohio. It was a World War Two trip. This was a couple years ago now but I had the privilege come aboard this vessel.
Great production commemorating the Cod! I got to take a tour of it some time ago,...what a great experience!
I got to see the cod when i was on a work trip in 2022. Man, she was something to see but interestingly, the pajamas werent there when i visited i have the picture to prove it (though admittedly blurry)
They may have been removed for washing sometime in the last 20 years... more likely they were hidden under something.
when a submarine captain is ready to attack all he needs is his hat. That is dressed enough to sink ships. :P lol
Everyone knows the true legend is that of the U.S.S. Codfish
Yeah, the Codfish sank 5 freighters and 15 aircraft carriers. Unfortunately they were sunk in 1954.
Three times at least
Nah m8 its albacore she sank taihou IJN aircraft carrier with one torpedo
Yh did nothing during the war lol. Sunk it's frist ship in 1950
Loved my visit to this awesome ship! I was a surface Sailor myself, much respect to those who care for this beautiful ship! Anchor Away!
Thank you sir for an outstanding presentation of the USS Cod. Very informative. Sure hope I can visit someday. Greetings from Iceland.
COD before COD become famous.
I've been visiting this boat since I was old enough to walk so glad to see it get some recognition
and this is 80 years old, amazing
That's only when it was finished and put together...this was in the making for many years before that. What's being machined today for sub production, won't be a finished product for about 20 years.
Just heard about the USS COD today, so I looked this video up.....love it. Will go and see it in person.
I visited 10 years ago. Would have been fun to have known the pajamas back story 😊
Saw one in person, very small, but packed full of stuff! And still bigger than a U-boat
GENUSGADUS
Thx
Thanks
Np
thx
@krakatoa fax
This is the most amazing video I have seen on TH-cam for a long time
30:40 love how the merchant ship just insta-stops due to the torp hit.
that's how that works right
Really missed watching these.
My mothers boyfriend at the time was a sailor onboard the Dutch sub when the crew were rescued. I have a group photo of that party in Fremantle.
What an honor it was for me to tour the USS Cod, you could reach out and touch dials and gauges that someone from WW II touched.
These vids are absolutely phenomenal. Thanks World of Warships.
GATO class, like a floating palace compared to the German TYPE VII.
This was an AWESOME video....very well done !....I've seen the Cod many times down near whats called "The Flats" area of Cleveland....Very close to Cleveland Browns Stadium.....She's a beauty !....Oh my mistake ....First Energy Stadium.
Now i want to eat cod while playing COD now
In the 90's went to the RRHOF. Parked by the Cod not even aware it was there. Boarded her & absolutely was the highlight of the trip, will go back for the Cod not the "RRHOSHAME"!!!! THANKS CLEVELAND, the Cod is a fantastic piece of history. Great place to straighten out the kids, theyll love it!!!!
Anyone else notice the Buddha belly at 28:34?
What great history! Thank you.
Our pleasure! We are glad you enjoyed this episode and don't forget to check out the entire Naval Legends series on our channel!
When I was Scoutmaster my scouts slept on the Silversides in Muskegon
It seems to be in a great shape, like you can just turn it on and go sinking ships at any time.
Just watched another series of vids showing Cod being removed from her berth and towed up to a dry dock for much needed repairs.
Years ago I worke on the same sort of GE diesels that Cod had. The ones I worked on had been modernised with massive turbochargers. At Full throttle a big flame would shoot out of the exhausts.
USS COD was SS-224, my father was radioman on USS SEACAT SS-399 which was one of 12 Subs that escorted the BB-63 Missouri into Tokyo Bay for the Surrender of the Japanese
Another great video, thx for this history lesson
A: Sir, so you say you don't have cash for COD?
B: Sorry, I must have forgotten
A: No problem
B:
"Would you like that in Chum consistency, or little bits and pieces?"
A:
The Cod left Cleveland today being towed to Erie PA for servicing after 58 years. Will be back in August.
The Diver who inspects the COD each year just put a video up of it in dry dock and the work they're doing to it, it had quite extensive corrosion.
Really well done video and a very fitting tribute to an outstanding and historic warship of the United States Navy.
I love the naval legends videos keep em coming !
Well done boys. My dad served on the USS Shangri-La CV-38 during WW2.
My Father was on the U.S.S. Redfin Gato class sub 42/43 and the U.S.S. Wasp Essex Class Aircraft Carrier 43/45🇺🇸
Very interesting...thank you Sir for your service
The Magnetic detonator worked properly, it just wasnt calibrated for equatorial latitude. New London CT where the Beuro of Ordinance for the submarine service is just above the 40th parallel, which has a tighter magnetic field as we get closer to the poles of the globe.
The other ignition problem encountered was the firing pin that was to travel accoss the axis of the torpedo. A right angle strike wouldn't detonate because of the inertial G force wouldn't allow the pin to travel upon impact. However a glancing angle strike there would be detonation. Ironically the fix was using the lightweight alloy from the propellers Japanese aircraft shot down at Pearl Harbor to fashion a lightweight version firing pin.
Great video. My community lost a citizen aboard the Wahoo; a memorial marker is located in the cemetery.
Just visited USS Cod
I miss studying the Cod from Hornblower's while eating clam dip.
Her sister ship the USS Croaker SS-246 is berthed in Buffalo,NY
What a technological marvel,beautiful ,gives me goose bumps
It's nice to see her in my home town getting Hall redone at the shipyard hear in Erie pa awesome document. I love history so dose my son
nice documentation
The flooding put the fire out
I actually live in Ohio myself, good to know one of our more historic parts of the state is getting noticed!
I live in Ohio. I fixed it for you.
WOW’s history videos are just fantastic!
You guys should do USS Barb, incredible sub
THANKS for your SERVICE !!!
N CONTINUED SERVICE !!
What a TREASURE !!
❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼🖖🏼🖖🏼🖖🏼🖖🏼
The COD was supposed to go into dry dock last fall, for an underwater survey/cleaning/repaint. Her last bottom inspection was back in the '60s. Yes, she is actually floating in Lake Erie... Anyway, she was supposed to be towed to Erie PA for the drydock, but the towing company backed out at the 11th hour. Now the COD is scheduled to be towed to Erie sometime this Spring (2021) for the underwater refurb..
She left this past Sunday to Erie pa , hitting a coast guard ship on the way out due to the tugs.
Check out the footage shot by a crew member during it. He posted several and gives an inside look at all the work done to her. Was a lot of work after sitting over 50 years. Awesome footage of her cutting a wake too.
Excellent video!
Dudley Walker Morton is the Leonidas of submarines. He took the submarine from a tool of observation to the weapon of war we know today. Many used the "down the throat" shot after he was the first to prove the right crew can do it. Plus Morton's tactics and knowledge was used by Richard O'kane to make O'kane the top sub skipper of ww2, and he happened to be Morton's former executive officer. I wonder what Morton could have done if he eventually got command of a Balao.
thank you for detail video
I just saw the USS cod today
Great watch!
"Run Silent, Run Deep" Great Movie.
Submarine Command is another good one
Excellent video.
Well since you already explain the artillery armament of submarines in the videos about submarines, I hope you do plan to introduce artillery armament for the submarines ingame too.
You should have these as a last ditch attempt at defending yourself as sub captain, having only one artillery gun of basically Destroyer caliber wouldn't be a real threat either, only when a target is about to die anyway.
Amazing to see the craftsmanship our forefathers were capable of some 80 years ago. And the heroes that actually went to war in those things, ...greater men than I !
Even longer before that. That's when it was all put together. But it would have taken many years of planning and building to get it to that point. I know they say what's currently being machined, won't be fully put together and in service for about 20 years.
The Cod just finished her Refit/Refurb in Pennsylvania
Does anyone know the planned release of the Submarine update? I was a massive fan of Das Boot when I was a child and I would love to relive some of that.
Awesome episode as always! Thank you for putting these together!
Try playing Silent hunter 2 on steam, I have the original on PC and modded it for the das boot Alarm siren for the crash dives
@@WolfdogKitok I tried the sub battles and honestly I hated how they tried to make them playable. I was actually looking forward to slowly skulking around the battlefield and denying the enemy certain avenues of attack. Also I was hoping for each nation to have a better gimmick than, one has faster sonar, one has a faster ship, ect. Would have been cool if the Germans had homing torpedoes, the US had underwater longevity, and the Soviets could lay mines. Something other than trying to force a ship with such different battle tactics to play like everyone else.
Subs will destroy this game if added to Randoms. Keep it in its own mode or don't put them in the game.
Being in a Submarine is like being in your living room without any windows. But it's much more quieter.
I served on two nuc subs. On a submarine if something catches fire you put the fire out or die trying because if you don’t try you will die without trying.
My father was a crewman on this boat. He was an electricians mate. His battle station was the forward torpedo room. He lost quite a bit of his hearing from both the deck guns and the loud machinery noise inside. His stories of approach and attack and being depth charged afterwards match these accounts very well. He also served on the Mingo and the Bergall.
When I was slim enough to fit thru the hatch many year's ago, I toured the COD. after all I was a native Clevelander who water skiied right up to the boat and also walked almost into a torpedo tube when lake Erie was frozen. This presentation was much, much better than my tour and I can appreciate how your dad endured the cramped environment. You have a great father!
@@raykudlak4713 Thanks Ray. Dad was also 6’4” he passed away in 1997. He was a great Dad.
You should do a video of the LST 325 in Evansville in that last operating LST in the world
What I want to know is, where did they keep the ammo for the deck gun. I presume they didn't lug those 5 inch shells up a ladder from inside, that wouldn't be very efficient.
If I remember right there was often a storage compartment in the front part of the turret, accessible from the deck. So rather short ways for the ammunition.
