| Description | 80-G-706976: Navy Diving School, Washington, D.C. Harold Weisbrod, Navy diver, sets record for “Wet Tank” dive at the U.S. Naval Gun Factory, Washington, D.C. The decompression process was a long and intricate one for these members of the U.S. Naval Experimental Diving Unit as they decreased the pressure on their submerged mate, Weisbrod, while he was making a dive to a simulated depth of 561 feet. Crewmen, left to right: Chief Metalsmith Wesley Singleton who is manning the pressure controls; Chief Gunner’s Mate Kenneth Ploof, and a qualified master diver, who is directing the operation and keeping in verbal communication with Weisbrod; Hospitalman First Class Bob E. Wright, who is holding a stop watch to see that all changes in pressure are exactly in accordance with the decompression tables; and Boatswain’s Mate George B. Phillip, released 18 March 1949. U.S. Navy Photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives. (2016/06/14). |
