PACIFIC OCEAN (Feb. 16, 2023) A screenshot of the wreck site of USS Albacore (SS 218) which was lost at sea, Nov. 7, 1944. Indications of documented modifications made to Albacore prior to her final patrol such as the presence of an SJ Radar dish and mast, a row of vent holes along the top of the superstructure, and the absence of steel plates along the upper edge of the fairwater allowed Naval History and Heritage Command to confirm the wreck site finding as Albacore.
