USS Sarsi Website Link
Tom Wilbeck has created a very interesting website about the USS Sarsi ATF-111,
a U.S. Navy Fleet Tug that was blown up by a mine off Korea in 1952.
Tom's late father, Tom, Sr., had served as a Salvage Diver and welder on the Sarsi
and left the ship just before her final, fatal mission. The site includes a section
on Salvage Divers, as well as details and photos of the ship and her crew.
Tom Wilbeck, Sr., at the USN Salvage School
in Bayonne, New Jersey, in 1949.
