File Data Released
Iwasaki gave a detailed review of what he discovered in the files present about the Japanese wartimes to The New York Times in 2019. He noted, “In that radio record, the longitude and latitude of the attack were outlined clearly.” Based on the information he gave, the records the U.S. had since 1949 was way off by at least 100 miles. Amazing how a single digit resulted in such a far off search effort.
“Operation Find” Begins
With the new information, Taylor was now confident that he would be able to identify the real wreckage site where Grayback could have landed. During the spring of 2019, Taylor and his team set out to accomplish a great journey. Fortunately, it was a successful trip as the Lost 52 Team managed to locate the lost submarine with the hull being in one place even after so many years. But to think this was the only discovery, the divers and researchers had another site they had to behold and one filled with lots of emotion.
