Re: The Remarkable Survival of the USS CHOPPER (SS 342) Reply to Stephen Lechowicz

I was stationed at COSL with OT2 Steve Stevens in the early 70's. He was an ex diesel boat guy and based on specific details he gave us I think he was on Chopper during this episode. Anybody know whatever happened with Steve?

I wish I knew. I was stationed with Steve at COSL. What a character! I could regale you with plenty of sea stories about Steve but probably couldn’t share them in polite company!

Rick, I always thought Steve might have suffered from oxygen deprivation while on diesel boats...crazy indeed! Sent you an email.
