 * Support - I've been on the fence for a bit, out of concern for technical quality, but this was shot in 1942, through a periscope, on a submarine near the surface during the course of action. We're not going to get the best quality, period, and the historical value offsets the technical limitations. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:08, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
