I was there last year; saw that. Cripes, that museum was great... enjoyed every minute of that tour.
You might wanna eyeball Sterling Hayden...(remember him as the nutball general in Dr. Strangelove) was a OSS guy in the Adriatic... supplying guns to the partisans behind enemy lines, bringing out downed allied pilots. Running gun battles, high seas actions.. the guy was a veritable 'james bond' during the war. Highly decorated for his actions during the war.

My father told me about this years ago. Sometimes the media is clow to catch on.

Too cool. :aok
