WWII USS Abner Read stern located
The Abner Read hit a mine left by the Japanese after they abandoned Kiska Island in Alaska's Aleutian Islands in 1943, ripping the stern off. But the ship never sank and was refitted and returned to duty. Now, 75 years after the ship's stern broke off, it has been located off Kiska by a team of scientists funded by the U.S. government.
