Just watched first glimpse of Survivor Palau at the end of survivor 9 last episode.
There was a huuuge amount of underwater WW2 stuff, at least one zero and then one F4F fuselage in the jungle..
WTF they are doing there , rescue those poor aeroplanes!! I donīt care watermelon if one of those "survivors" get lost there as long as we get those planes outta there :)
-
Can't save the F4F - teh navyh will be on joo arse.
-
I've actually sat in the zero that's about 6 ft under water in Palau damn thing is tiny - if you ever get out there go dive with Sharky's and go and take a look at Orange beach - where the Marine assault took place - still lots of bits and pieces lying around.
-
Actully tried out for that episode LOL
My audition tape was of me in purple panties and bra with a black cowby hat and boots "the cross dressing cowboy"

No, the Navy will not, but the government of Palau will.
The other issues to consider are also as to whether they are war graves... that alone will piss off most vets and get DoD peeved enough that they will raise hell with Palau's gov't and they will come down hard on your arse...
-
Would someone be nice enough to post pics of what is shown?
I $@!* hate reality TV (except for document.) and don't care to watch who ever is voted off the show.

I lived for 6 months in the jungles of the Solomon Islands. San Christobel, Guaducanal, Makira, Savo and shortland Island.
Those places are full of WW2 aircraft. Japanese had large air harbours up there. Lots of Jap bombers and fighters sunk only metres off the shoreline. Lots of US fighters and a B17 in snorkelling depth of Guad (B17) and many of the northern Islands for the fighters. The Jungles themselves are loaded with munitions, US and Japanese Mortar and grenade caches, US Amphib vehicles, bunker systems, tanks etc etc. Savo strait is littered with sunken vessels. 2 of the Japanese Merchant marine ships are in only a few metres of water easily reached.
Ammo, dogtags, messkits, spoons, belts, chalkstone gravestones made by buddys. Its all there.
To imagine how these guys fought on places like Guaducanal, you have to go there to see the jungle itself. Those guys, on both sides did it very hard.
I have a couple of CD's worth of piccys laying around here somewhere. Gives a never ending appreciation for the hardship those troops, pilots and sailors faced.

Dig em out, this a good thread for it...
