George, I was at the Hunley burial service and funeral several years ago, 2-1/2 miles long a very moving tribute. The men on board did not know the history they were making, almost like the first men on the moon.

No Dean: Lt. George E. Dixon

Gary: I was there when the Hunley was raised from it's grave. I was standing on the point of Sullivan's Island just outside the walls of Fort Moultrie along with several hundred others. It was a moving experience. With binoculars I could see it very plainly. I could'nt make it to the crew's burial. That must have been a moving experience.

Best Regards, George
