 | 55k | The Haddock (SSN-621) with an escort of dolphins off her bow, during her sea trials in the Gulf Of Mexico, circa 1967. The two men in the sail are Lt JG Vaughn and TM3 Thornton on the plank. Actually, we'd been out once from Pascagoula, MS for about a week and had a problem doing high speed maneuvers (angles and dangles) near the end of the trials. I was on the planes in the control room when the problem occurred. Exciting! We went back to the shipyard to figure out and fix the problem. As I recall, this was our second time out … may have even been coming out of Mobile, Alabama this time. Lt Vaughn and I watched the plane as the pilot circled many times to try to time his pass to be in sync with the 3 dolphins (actually porpoises of course) intermittently surfing the bow wave. The sounds and smells and joy of life come back to me even today, 39 years later. When the photographer on the plane got this photo he was holding on to a right wing strut with his left hand and his camera with his right hand – all the while hanging out of the plane with his feet just touching inside the plane's cockpit. The pilot almost stalled the plane in a slow upward movement so the photo could be taken. Then the plane tipped forward and downward. It began to fall toward the sea. The pilot poured the coal to it and pulled up about a 100 feet above the water and flew away. Mr. Vaughn, a good man, and I actually laughed together about seeing such a thing and hoping that the photographer got the shot. | Official US Navy photo courtesy of Wendell Royce McLaughlin Jr. Text courtesy of Wayne Thornton, plank owner. | ||||||||||||||||

 | 74k | Canal eye view as the Haddock (SSN-621) exits the Caribbean-side locks of the Panama Canal and transits Lake Gatun in central Panama to the Pacific-side locks, around Jan-Feb 1968. A new experience for this denizen of the deep to slice fresh water! The sailors aboard remember seeing natives in the jungle along the Lake wearing only a few strands clothing on them; living in what appeared to be huts made of branches and covered with fronds. An unexpected and foreign sight for sure." | Courtesy of Gerald W. Van Iwaarden, plankowner. Text courtesy of W.B. Thorn. | ||||||||||||||||
