From the Depths
Jeff gets a rusted no-prize for bringing us this "as-it-happens" video of what appears to be an F4F variant getting fished out of Lake Michigan. The reason why this doesn't happen more often is (as I recall) back in the early 60s the Navy got legislation passed that gives them sole possession of all Navy property, past present and future. The volume of paperwork alone required just to start a salvage project is said to be legendary.
Close it's an F6F-3. Enterprise Rent a Car actually funded the salvage of it (Seems the Company founder flew off the USS Enterprise and the son still owns the Company)
