Historical film from 1960 up on the Navy TV website

2 posts
  1. Details the work of Fenimore Johnson, who invented a series of cameras for use in the underwater world. Seriously old school footage of the Underwater Demolition Teams (UDTs).

    It's ancient by today's standards but fun to watch if you have the time. You have to get past the music, but a great lesson in from whence we came. Watch for the first underwater film camera (1 minute of shooting time), the first still camera, the first compass, and more things we take for granted today.
