Everyone,

I would like to put together a computerized revolving pictorial presentation to be part of Lockwood Internet Base's "Memorial Submarine Display Table" at the 2008 USSVI Convention in September. I'm hoping this will bring attention to the table and get people to stop for a while to check out what all the table will have to offer. I am asking anyone and everyone to email me recent (in the last few years) photographs from any of the submarine museum boats, including:

USS Cod (SS-224)
USS Drum (SS-228)
USS Silversides (SS-236)
USS Cavalla (SS-244)
USS Cobia (SS-245)
USS Croaker (SS-246)
USS Bowfin (SS-287)
USS Ling (SS-297)
USS Lionfish (SS-298)
USS Batfish (SS-310)
USS Becuna (SS-319)
USS Clamagore (SS-343)
USS Pampanito (SS-383)
USS Razorback (SS-394)
USS Torsk (SS-423)
USS Requin (SS-481)
USS Marlin (SST-2)
USS Albacore (AGSS-569)
USS Nautilus (SSN-571)
USS Growler (SSG-577)
USS Blueback (SS-581)
USS Dolphin (AGSS-555)
U-505 (German)
K-77 (Russian)
B-39 (Russian)
B-427 (Russian)

Please send any photos to SUBMARINEMUSEUMS@Gmail.com and if possible, include the following:
1) Submarine name?
2) What is happening in the photo, or what is the event taking place in the photo, or who is in the photo? (whichever is/are applicable)
2) Who took the photograph? (if you know)
3) When was the photograph taken? (approximately is fine)

Before and after pictures of any restoration effort (painting, cleaning, repairing, etc) will greatly be appreciated. Special events are a plus too. Good indoor and outdoor shots are welcomed as well. Yes, I want any photographs!

I'll accept any and all photographs, but please DO NOT SEND copyrighted photographs unless it has been approved to do so. Don't worry about size, the bigger the better and I'll resize to what is needed. The maximum attachment size limit for Gmail is 20 megabytes, so please keep single email attachments to something smaller than that and send multiple emails with attachments if you need to.

If I can keep the filesize small on the end resulting presentation, I hope to make it downloadable to the public. With your permission I would also like to use any of your photographs on the SUBMARINEMUSEUMS.ORG website. If you have any questions please ask.

I'll only be able to work with what I'm given, so please send me anything you have. Once again, the email address is:

SUBMARINEMUSEUMS@Gmail.com

Hi snakeyez


I have a set of pictures that I took back in June, 2002 of the USS Ling. If you'd like copies of them, I can put copies of them on a disk and send them to you. There are 24 pictures in total.

I'm assuming you've seen the thread of the USS Cod above in the stickied threads. It has a bunch of pictures.

Can ya email them to me tambor198? I'd hate for you to go through all that trouble. But yes, that would be wonderful. I've been trying to get some response from anyone at the Ling, as I know she's in trouble. I've had one guy talk to me about the "Save the Ling" movement, but that's it.

And yes, those are great Cod photos, I just haven't gotten around to asking Stew278 if I could use 'em.

No trouble at all, snakeyez. Please check your PMs.

snakeyez, I sent you a PM.

Thanks!

Feel free to use any of the pictures I posted. They were all taken June 01, 2008.

I'm hoping to get to the Historic Dockyard in Chatham (that's the Chatham in England ) so will post you some pictures of HMS Ocelot if you can use them. Not sure if I'll make it in time but will try.

snakeyez77,

I emailed you 28 photos of the USS Silversides in 6 emails. It seems my provider will only allow attachments under 10MB.

The photos of the USS Batfish will take a little longer as I have many more.

The photos of the USS Croaker will take some doing. If I can find them, there were taken on 35mm slides that will have to be digitized. I don't know how well they will turn out.

Thanks for your support and interest guys.

And thanks for emailing me those photos nomad66, you're quite the shutterbug. Looking forward to the Batfish pics.

snakeyez77,

I sent you a number of photos of the USS Batfish. Enjoy
