      @@stanfordcoffee USS Spearfish actually did rescue these nurses! And also the USS Crevalle did rescue the dependents of Philippine Guerrillas, one of which "was very pregnant" and gave birth to a son before the sub arrived in Australia.

    Good show and good presentation. However, I have to believe that after everything those brave nurses endured on Bataan and Corregidor they would not have been concerned with how they were dressed when they reached Australia. Hollywood must have its view.

    I just found out 1 of my school buddies brother is a sub skipper on modern sub. U.S. submarine scared me dizzy. While scuba diving NW corner of America an Washington State, a long long basalt rock wall, 100 fathoms deep (600ft) a piece of rock wall a fissure line fell to make a 2 walled with ceiling room, but with no floor just 550ft deep. (Bottomless pit baby!). Anything swimming or floating entire straight has too pass this rock formation. Lin Cod that can bite your into 3 parts, easy! Great Whites, you've seen them! Orca Killer whales in groups of pods! They know your there from your exhaust bubbles. Then the sonor or US subs passing by blast you senseless. You see this huge submarine pass by so close you can read marking an fixtures. Then while all this going on you look down too nothingness! One of Scariest places on earth! I loved it! I'm last too know of this place on earth!

    Rather odd episode. The Captain (Doc McCoy, Kelly) with his shirt off, and then still with women present. The women appeared to not have any idea of the impact their presence had to men? Concerned with their clothing? They had been rescued from Corregidor, these are experienced nurses, not naive teenagers. The woman in the shower? Showers, salt water? Fresh for 10 seconds? So far, this is the only episode like it. Sounds unrealistic. What happened, Hollywood got more involved? Corregidor had just surrendered ... May 1942
