1. Name the U.S. Submarine that has the distinction of being the first U.S. sub to take Japanese prisioners in the Pacific War.
2. Name the sub's skipper.
3. Name the battle this capture/resuce happened in.
4. Name the Japanese ship from which these survivors were rescued.

Dave wins...therefore he is the winner of a no-expenses paid trip to Muskogee to put down some deck
I expected this one to be a little harder...but Dave nailed it.
Good job!
