I saw old footage, posted on yt, with three sailors lifted of the ground when Akron was landing, tragically, two could not hold on. I recall that, because I though to myself that today's news would not have shown all the gruesome details, specially with such sensational commentary.

Today's news wouldn't - but news back then was more akin to the wild-west of YouTube.
