Cuban missle crisis assertion
Write now, the assertion is made, "...the Captain, believing that a war might already be in progress, ordered a nuclear torpedo armed for use; apparently two other high-ranking officers on board, notably Vasiliy Arkhipov, calmed him down.[No source citations provided for assertion made in last sentence]"
 * BBC carried a similar story, overheard in a bar in Havana during a reunion of former soviet naval participants, in 2002, I think.
 * The entry at Vasiliy Arkhipov also tells a similar story.
 * Chronology of Submarine Contact During the Cuban Missile Crisis October 1, 1962 - November 14, 1962 entry for Saturday, October 25, 1962--1729 (local time) reads: ... Although aware of the U.S. notification that practice-depth charges would be used, the initial impression of the Soviet submariners was that they were under attack. (Deck Log Book of Cony, 10/27/62; Huchthause, p. 169)

Entry for Saturday, October 27, 1962-2050-2052 (local time): With its batteries running low, submarine B-59/C-19 is forced to surface and heads east. Although surrounded by U.S. ships, submarine captain Vitali Savitsky realizes that they are not in a "state of war; one of the destroyers has a lively band playing jazz.

B-39 Foxtrot may have moved
The B-39 Foxtrot submarine may have been relocated. I visited B-39 "Cobra" while in Seattle during the summer of 2003. Here are the links: http://russiancobra.com/, http://russiansubseattle.com/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.214.128.4 (talk) 18:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

'Current'
Its current status as of April 2015 is unclear.
 * Unless someone's updating daily, current and currently should not be used in an encyclopedia article, as the reference could become outdated at any time. For similar reasons, past-tense verbs should be used, as most articles will outlive the present-tense status of breaking news.
 * – Changed to Its subsequent status was unknown. Sca (talk) 13:57, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
