The team members of The USS Dorado Project traveled to Washington, DC and gave a presentation to Rear Admiral Samuel Cox, the Director of the Naval History & Heritage Command, and Dr. Alexis Catsambis, the head of the Underwater Archeology Branch (UAB). We outlined our case for the project and our efforts were very well received by the admiral and his staff. We also got a tour of the UAB facilities and witnessed first hand their incredible work in preserving artifacts of our naval heritage. We would like to thank NHHC and the UAB for their time and we look forward to greater things to come!
