A lost American war submarine that was sunk by Japanese forces more than 75 years ago and claimed the lives of 80 servicemen has been miraculously found after researchers realized war records mistranslated the coordinates of its last sighting. The U.S.S. Grayback SS-208, hailed as one of the most successful American submarines of World War II, was patrolling the South Pacific and South China Sea when it mysteriously disappeared in February 1944.The submarine left Pearl Harbor on January 28, 1944 for its 10th combat mission and failed to return to a nearby naval base in March. The Grayback torpedoed numerous enemy vessels, rescued downed American aviators, and sank more than a dozen Japanese ships during the war, according to the New York Times. The Navy listed the submarine, which ranked as the 20th most successful sub in WWII, as missing and presumed lost. After the war the Navy used Japanese military records to piece together the history of its lost subs. According to the 1949 record, the Navy believed the Grayback sunk in open ocean 100 miles east-southeast of Okinawa. However, the sub was never found. A breakthrough in the mystery came last year thanks to the findings of amateur Japanese researcher Yutaka Iwasaki and a discovery expedition led by Tim Taylor of the Lost 52 Project. Iwasaki reviewed Japanese wartime records of the Imperial Japanese Navy base at Sasebo last year and found a radio recording from February 27, 1944 that revealed a Nakajima B5N carrier-based bomber dropped a 500-pound bomb on a surfaced submarine. The sub exploded and sank immediately with no survivors. The recording included the last location of the sub, believed to be the Grayback. However, Iwasaki found that found that the coordinates did not match the ones noted by the U.S. Navy. He found that the Navy had been replying on a flawed translation of the Japanese war records that got one digit wrong in the latitude and longitude of the Grayback’s last position. He discovered Grayback had been hit 100 miles from the approximate location the Navy had listed. ‘In that radio record, there is a longitude and a latitude of the attack, very clearly,’ Iwasaki said to the Times. Share this article Share After making his discovery, the new coordinates were flagged to Tim Taylor, the undersea explorer behind the privately funded Lost 52 Project, a group that seeks to locate each of the 52 American subs lost in WWII. ‘It was off by one digit. That changed the location by more than 100 miles,’ Taylor said on the errant coordinates record. Taylor then headed out into open water this past spring to find the remains of the forgotten submarine. His team took off from Hawaii towards Okinawa and
