Title: USS O-8
Description: (SS-69) Underway and about to submerge. It was from O-8 that a radio program was broadcast from under water. Two NBC announcers, one located in the main control room of the submarine, and another situated in the torpedo room, described their sensations as the sub made its descent to the bottom of the sea. (quoted from the original mid-1920s vintage caption). Courtesy of the San Francisco Maritime Museum, San Francisco, California. U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command Photograph.
