How exciting is this? Sept 29th at 6PM CT.

Quest for Sunken Warships
Torpedo Alley
TV-PG, CC

In 1942 German U-boats turned the waters off Cape Hatteras North Carolina into a sea of death. For six months the marauding U-boats patrolled the area unchallenged, sinking countless ships that littered the ocean and beaches with oil, cargo and bodies.

You will notice as you watch, that the subplot of this show is the danger of wrek diving and decompression sickness (DCS).

So happens, as I was a part of the dive team, and ended up with a mild case of DCS, I got at least 15 seconds of airtime on the show.

Obviously you had been trained and had all the qualifications needed to dive, yet you still ended up with DCS. It just shows how important proper training really is. Without it, you probably wouldn`t be here to tell us about it.

I'm a not-so-crabby-anymore, late 40's white guy. 3 kids mostly gone, a smart, good-looking wife, and a couple of shi-tzu's. I scuba dive, play guitar in a rock band, restore vintage Porsches, and try to remain calm. 4th of July and Halloween are my favorite holidays.
