The crew of the Harder gave thier lives so we can have the freedom we enjoy today. It's interesting to see that the torpedo tubes are open...makes me believe it was lost during an attack run🤔. To all the men and their family members.. Thank You for your sacrifice!!! A disabled US Army Veteran
My great great uncle was on the Harder when it went down. His name lives on in our hearts. He will forever be remembered and loved. Ray Mills
Yes. It was.
My Grand Uncle Lloyd Hammond Sommerschield was a Coxswain on the "USS Harder" My grandmother (Lloyds older sister) someone I was very close with would share stories with me about USS Harders's accomplishments in the Pacific Theatre. They truly were a legendary submarine. They single handedly played a huge role in turning the tide against the Japanese naval forces. I am appreciative of Tiburon Subsea's incredible work. Thanks to all military for your service. We can now have closure. "Hit em Harder!" RIP Grand Uncle
RIP to my great great uncle Ray Mills. He lives on in our hearts
To all the crews on Eternal Patrol: Thank you for your sacrifice. You saved the world for us. May we work that your sacrifice was not in vain. From a fellow Navy veteran in gratitude and honor.
R.I.P to all those souls on board. Thank you for your service.
My grandfather was stationed on the Harder. He broke his arm during R&R after the 5th war patrol. He was left behind for the final patrol. He went on to serve on the USS Gunnell, he retired from the Navy in the late 50s. My father and myself went on to qualify in submarines and serve our country during the Cold War.
USS Harder Crew On Eternal Watch.
Patrol . Sorry …. Eternal Patrol.
@@brianyoung8354 Where they are standing watch......
@@Trollemharder WATCHING WHAT?
@@christonefeltzs5149 I suggest you google the term standing watch.
@@Trollemharder while I agree every watch feels “eternal” I would hope I wasn’t stuck pulling one thru ACTUAL eternity .
My eternal gratitude to all who fought for America. At home and around the world. May god bless you.
It was discovered near Dasol, Pangasinan. That is not south china sea but the Philippines
It’s in pretty good condition with all things considered. R.I.P
Excellent news!
Also, please don't allow Tom Llamas to interview people. He steps all over them and isn't registering a word they say.
I agree he is over bearing didnt think about it untill you mentioned it
This type of journalism drives me nuts. “I have 15 questions that I am going to machine gun you with instead of having a discussion.”
I agree very over bearing
thanks for your ultimate service Sir
Fair winds and following seas all submarine sailors on eternal patrol
I was stationed on the Worlds First Nuclear Powered Submarine and its associated Massive US Submarine Museum. Proud of the Nautilus and all she represents. Now the story of the USS Harder (SS 257) disappearance is sorta resolved. It was finally found after 80 years of being lost. The Lost Crew believe it or not, are again rejoicing. God Bless Submariners.
USS Sargo SSN 583 MS3 (SS) . Ahoy , ahroogah ahroogah ahroogah , dive !
After a long time trying to find a long video I finally found one. My great great uncle Ray Mills was on the Harder. He has a place in our hearts and love. RIP to all those who were on and now we may finally have closer. Keep hitting em harder, Harder
Where does the name Harder come from?
Its not only that generation that does not talk about war. My vietnam Vet Pops was also silent about his tours there.
Those sailors on the Harder were Hard Men!!
This is the right kind of expeditiòn.
The USS Harder is said to be named for
the Harder, a fish of the mullet family
found off South Africa.
south china sea or west philippine sea?
West Philippines sea
Thank you Mr. Taylor.
Amazing!
I know growing up the tale of the Merrimack vs. Monitor came up frequently over the years in school. Certainly was a novel occasion that changed the way naval warfare was to be fought ever after. Might make a really interesting movie if they have enough material on the two vessels and their crew.
The octopus on the side of the sub was really cool. What are the chances? I really hope to hear more about this sub. A truly fascinating discovery. Hopefully the cres remains can brought home. May they rest in peacein the arms of the Lord.
I was stationed on the Worlds First Nuclear Powered Submarine and its associated Massive US Submarine Museum. BTW its absolutely Free to visit. Proud of the Nautilus and all she represents.

God Bless Submariners.
Is it possible for a Reporter to ask a thought-provoking question?
Top 10 STUPID questions by a reporter:
How do you feel finding dead people?
What's it like winning a lottery?
How do you feel that your parents are deceased?
What's it like losing your best friend?
How do you feel now that you have a terminal illness?
Etc......
Can someone ask an intelligent question??
The hull looks to be intact. Wonder what exactly happened to her. Pirate salvagers are targeting WWII and eariler wrecks for the steel. It seems there is a lucrative black market for it.
Pre nuclear age steel is important for mri machines. All new steel has background radiation
@Youreusingtoomanynapkins Yes , I've heard that. I saw some disturbing accounts here on RUclips that the Chinese have operated salvage ships on the wrecks of British war grave ships in the Pacific, such as HMS Prince of Wales. They actually used machinery to separate the human remains from metals, leaving the bones to fall back into the depths.
If true, THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS !
I feel that those Chinese salvage ships should be treated as ☠️ pirate ships traditionally were, in the past.
@@celticman1909 Coming from a country that involuntarily harvests organs, are you surprised?
Octopus 🦑 having the time of it's life 😁
Something about Pacific Ocean make wrecks conserve so much longer.
Sensational!
Dasol bay is not part of south china sea it's part of west philippine sea in pangasinan
USS HARDER was found in Dasol Bay Pangasinan, meaning it was found in WEST PHILIPPINE SEA. this misinformation encourage the CCP to just take the whole West Philippine Sea because you guys call it the wrong way. it was disrespectful not only to those sailor who lost their lives and also to the people they protected.
yamashita gold is there 😂
Then, dont put these sites on the map post discovery.
On Eternal Patrol
God Bless Submariners.
Presenter sounds Canadian. Which is fine.
**West Philippine Sea
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
it is in West Philippine Sea. not in south china sea
Makes me wonder if the USS TANG Still exists. She sunk in shallow waters and waters where China doesn't allow exploration. If I had to wager a guess, I'd say Tang was broken up and salvaged a long time ago.
Love Tim’s passion.
WEST PHILIPPINE SEA!
4 of 6 outter door are open
He stayed away from the titanic submersible
Team ROV rules for deep waters
CCP China:
That is actually OUR'S!!!
Everything all along belongs to us!
Free metal for our tofu dreg ghost cities!
West Philippines sea
So this must be China's new sub.
That's why america can just give up the west sea. They get that and own that even life on world war...
I bet he dose not do it for nothing
245
So historical but this china think that it just like that they get if they want. I dont think so...
Lousy interviewer. but then that is the Lame Stream Media
Fighters fought for the Sykes-Picot agreement to divide middle east north Africa and the Arabian land lol poor soldiers used as toys.
Too much yikity yak. A few pictures and that's it.
Amen too much yaky yack from the reporter over bearing
Get that pre-nuclear steel son. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Not as valuable as it once was. They have over saturated the market, on top of other legitimate "salvage" like at Scappa Flow... They are destroying war graves for pennies, while also damaging the under water environment...

Enough with the touchy-feely BS. Anybody who knew these men is long dead, or was a baby when he went missing. There is no “closure“ at this point.
The rest of the story is pretty neat. I don’t know why people feel the need to cloud everything with Melodrama these days.
Imagine if he finds MH70 😱
