Dear

 

On the surface this article is about a former US Navy diver testing newly donated dive gear. However, go a bit deeper, and it is about much more than that.

 

You may not know Chief Julius McManus by name, but you know of him if you know Project Recover. He is the diver in the iconic underwater photo with the American flag. Jules helped recover MIAs from the Arnett B-24 in 2008.

 

Now disabled, Jules dove with the assistance of Project Recover partners, Legion Undersea Services, to help test recently donated dive equipment.

 

 

We are honored by Chief Julius McManus' service to help bring MIAs home and privileged to feature his story here. 

 

This story is about people and organizations intersecting at their best to create a series of awe-inspiring events and bring more MIAs home.

As always, thank you for your support of Project Recover. We couldn't do it without you.
