New Alligator
Information
From the
President of the Navy & Marine Living History Association
It
has been some time since our research in either the historical record
or under the ocean has resulted in something newsworthy, but last
week that dry spell ended in a big way. As indicated in an article
in the recent issue of Undersea Warfare, the US Navy now officially
recognizes Alligator as its first submarine. In one way,
we have succeeded in finding this long-lost vessel just over three
years ago, Alligator was virtually lost to history; now it
is slowly regaining its place in the records and, helping to enrich
our naval history.
We
hope soon to be able to distribute another update with information
on Brutus de Villeroi's early work in France, dating back to 1832
and his first "boat-fish" . . . Also, over the next few
weeks, the Navy & Marine LHA Alligator website will be
totally redesigned to accommodate new information--including the deck
logs from the gunboats Port Royal and Maratanza
and the supply ship Brandywine, which we hope will shed some
light on Alligator's June 1862 mission up Appomattox Creek
near Petersburg.
Thank
you for being patient while we were all turning over rocks and pestering
archivists!
