This is an incredible story. Film found of B-29 crew rescue


This is worth watching... about 2.5 mins.  An entire crew of a B-29 (12 aviators) was rescued by a US submarine after their plane was shot down in ~1945, 70 miles off the coast of Japan.  The entire rescue was filmed in colour, but the film sat in a guy's closet until now.  This is a story from a Denver TV station of one of those rescued aviators to whom the video was delivered.  It also shows their transfer to another submarine that is likely headed back to port before the one that accomplished the rescue."


 

Can you imagine 65 yrs AFTER your rescue you get to watch it on film?!?!
