Question: WIll there be a USS Indianapolis 75th Anniversary Camo or ship discount in the Shop for this ship ? In Honor of its sinking on July 30th 1945 ? Other ships have received this Honor in the game . Please repost if you support this idea .
Holy Hallelujah!

WOW!!! [no pun intended] but that is the most misleading way to present a set of data/statistics I have ever seen.
I don’t even know where to begin. You know what. I’ll leave it up to you and your conscience. .
code dont work
My Grandfather Donald Besse served aboard the U.S.S. COD patrols 2-6.
He was a GM3c
When they sunk the Destroyer Karukaya, it was crazy.
As the story goes, my grandpa knocked out a crewmate who was freaking out and screaming while they were getting depth charged.
I guess if they were going to get blown up, he wanted a little peace and quiet first.
They made it out of there, but I guess it was like pennies rattling around in a coke can, whole sub was shaking.
Awesome video
I live about 45 minutes south of Cleveland and visited her a few times; we are VERY proud and happy to have the Cod
Thank you Cleveland for knowing what a true treasure The Cod was. And Thank you Paul Farace for an amazing tour of the USS Cod
Agreed👏👏🤩
I would had never guess that a software game company would be so passionate enough to be an educator as well. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.
They aren’t. It just helps them sell more stuff to you. Their customer service effin sucks seriously bad.
I know, right? That was excellent!
@chloehennessey6813 Wow you're a fool. You're completely missing the point here.
They do everything better than balancing their game XD
I live in Cleveland. The USS Cod is definitely one of the city's hidden treasures. All of my friends from out of town always want to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame...which I always oblige, but there's always a detour afterwards to the USS Cod museum.
Always a great one to see in Cleveland, they keep her in immaculate shape, I’ve enjoyed every trip there.
Where is this in relation to the RnR Hall of Fame?
@@Raellives right next door to it. Every time I visit the HOF I stop by the USS Cod next door.
My dad took us to see the USS COD several times before he passed away 2days after my 8th birthday. I met actual veteran sailors who did patrols on her in the pacific. Veterans are to me, treasured living history books that complement a piece of WWII pacific theater history!! It's one of Cleveland's many wonderful museums!! Incredibly small as submarines go. The USS COD museum experiences are among some great childhood memories.
This is the second Gato class museum ship I’ve heard of. The first being the USS Silversides in Muskegon, Michigan.
@@benpurcell4935, you should try the USS Drum, SS-228, the OLDEST surviving Gato class submarine. She is part of the USS Alabama memorial park in Mobile, Alabama.
Ok, who else would have wanted to go down in the history as the captain who sank ships naked?
I wonder if he was in his full birthday suit or had undies on etc. Though you may as well be naked for all the dignity you get from a pair of budgie smugglers (speedos) hehehe.
He could have at least worn a codpiece.
Absolutely Beautiful.
Thank you World Of Warships for these very emotional and inspiring documentaries about ships that were Legends.
The USS Silversides submarine is now a museum based near Lake Michigan in Muskegon, Michigan. I have visited her several times.
same class as well
The USS Cobia is another Gato-class Diesel-electric sub that saw service in WWII, now turned into a floating museum, up in Manitowoc, WI. I was a tour guide on it for a while.
To the crew(s) of the USS COD, Thank you for your service. The only reason the USAF got me was the fact that the naval recruiting office was out to lunch..... otherwise I was small enough and intelligent enough to have qualified for "The Silent Service" when I was looking to join the Navy back in '64. USAF recruiters were in the office next door ! Such is Fate.
Same thing for me in 77.
Wow, I have to say for what ultimately is an advertisement for your game, that was damn good documentary. I've lived in Cleveland my whole life and visited the Cod twice but never learned her history, thank you for making this!
I visited Cleveland and went aboard the Cod about 10 years ago. I wore my Navy submarine ball cap and was amazed at the welcome I received... they rolled out the red carpet for a fellow dolphin wearing submariner. Ironic that her hull number is 224 because my old sub had hull number 624. The Cod does not have a “hole” punched in her like other tourist subs and you really have to be careful when you board her. I thank all that welcomed me on that day and I especially thank everyone that keeps her preserved.
Thank you for your service.
My mother’s cousin commanded three subs in WWII. He retired as a Rear Admiral, Sank about 55K tons. His last command was the USS Cutlass. It is still a war ready vessel, part of the Taiwanese navy, the Sea lion. In 2019 she got a $19M retrofit. Mark Felton has done a short video on her. My cousin was Herbert Lollis Jukes, USNA Class of ‘32
Got to get a tour of her today with Paul, what an honor it was to step onto a piece of American history. Thank you to all who served on this vessel and all our American heroes who sacrificed for this great country.
Really loved this video. But I find it just a little interesting that no mention was made of the USS Gar, which the Cod replaced at that same berthing location in Cleveland. When I was a kid in Cleveland, just shy of 70 years ago, my dad took me aboard her several times. That was a tight little boat. Been on the Cod too. Hope to again soon.
OUTSTANDING Presentation of Cod!! I've held a lifelong love of submarine warfare in general and WWII, Pacific theater submarine warfare in particular. My Dad was a Marine Corps pilot in WWII and Korea, and that influenced my decision to go Army aviation for Vietnam, otherwise I'm sure I would have been a Bubblehead. I wrote about submarine warfare in several of my (historically accurate fiction) books in the series, "The Indomitable Patriot," "They Stood Above The Rest," and "The Patriot Chronicles: Operation Crimson Tide."
I subscribed to the channel and look forward to watching the rest of the shows. I also wish to compliment the producers for their accuracy in this show. It was a hard life aboard the "Pig Boats" and you documented it exceptionally well.........
I'm 12 turning 13 in April and I've been watching these since I was 9 and I still love this
Wow! The comparable stats between the Atlantic and Pacific merchant kills is astonishing! I'm assuming a lot had to do with the fact that the allies compromised German communications. Very Cool! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you to all the crews of the Cod and the good people of Cleveland ihope to visit the Cod one day.
I got to see the cod when i was on a work trip in 2022. Man, she was something to see but interestingly, the pajamas werent there when i visited i have the picture to prove it (though admittedly blurry)
They may have been removed for washing sometime in the last 20 years... more likely they were hidden under something.
How many U-Boats do you have?
Kriegsmarine: Yes
71 in operation at any
give time
@@thesandtiger a very good number
@@1mailpigeon1 Not very good odds of coming home though. 70% of them were sunk.
@@Nekulturny and only sunk about 1% of us navy merchant fleet
@@1mailpigeon1 the Americans sung about 80 percent of the Japanese merchant ship flee
Great video. To my late friend Leo Davis who served aboard the Cod during WWII. We miss you buddy. Leo ashes were shot out of a torpedo tube at the North Pole buy the USS New Mexico a couple of years ago.
Lee Rebel Davis... my good friend and Cod crewman on all seven Cod war patrols
Wish measurements weren't in metres; however, excellent. Great visitor attraction in Cleveland where USS Cod is permanently docked on North Coast Harbor.
As a Canadian, I'm fine with metres. I just find it offensive that they'd measure the diesels in horsepower, when everybody knows that diesels are all about TORQUE!
As a nuke submarine sailor I've always been in awe of the men of the ww2 submarines. Thanks for a wonderful video.
Crewman: captain can you please put some pants on?
Captain: nuts .
nuts .
Butts.
Nuts!
It can’t be a coincidence that I was listening to a book on audible featuring a Gato class and now I get a recommended video for one
Ur eyes are opening.
What book?
@@jordanhall8691 Thunder Below, and it’s quite good!
I was just listening to the story about cpt. Flucky and the USS Barb. Does guys in WWII pig boats were real heroes.
Loved my visit to this awesome ship! I was a surface Sailor myself, much respect to those who care for this beautiful ship! Anchor Away!
Went to tour the Cod a few weeks ago. She's a beautiful boat and excellently maintained by Paul and his team. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area.
USS COD is actually in Erie PA getting a good ol overhaul to keep her floating
For a end of middle school trip we went to see the USS Cod and some aquarium near there it was really cool to be inside the cod and try not to hit my head on everything
I had a school trip from Dennison Ohio. It was a World War Two trip. This was a couple years ago now but I had the privilege come aboard this vessel.
Now come on, I want to see a naval legends on the fish
Great production commemorating the Cod! I got to take a tour of it some time ago,...what a great experience!
Sinking a ship while naked is the most bad ass thing ever...
When you go fishing and suddenly realized you just fished up a cod...
Thank you for posting such great videos about such legendary ships. Please keep up the great work I Thoroughly enjoy all of the videos you’ve made!
I visited 10 years ago. Would have been fun to have known the pajamas back story 😊
when a submarine captain is ready to attack all he needs is his hat. That is dressed enough to sink ships. :P lol
In the 90's went to the RRHOF. Parked by the Cod not even aware it was there. Boarded her & absolutely was the highlight of the trip, will go back for the Cod not the "RRHOSHAME"!!!! THANKS CLEVELAND, the Cod is a fantastic piece of history. Great place to straighten out the kids, theyll love it!!!!
Everyone knows the true legend is that of the U.S.S. Codfish
Yeah, the Codfish sank 5 freighters and 15 aircraft carriers. Unfortunately they were sunk in 1954.
Three times at least
Nah m8 its albacore she sank taihou IJN aircraft carrier with one torpedo
Yh did nothing during the war lol. Sunk it's frist ship in 1950
Just heard about the USS COD today, so I looked this video up.....love it. Will go and see it in person.
30:40 love how the merchant ship just insta-stops due to the torp hit.
that's how that works right
The Cod left Cleveland today being towed to Erie PA for servicing after 58 years. Will be back in August.
What an honor it was for me to tour the USS Cod, you could reach out and touch dials and gauges that someone from WW II touched.
GATO class, like a floating palace compared to the German TYPE VII.
My mothers boyfriend at the time was a sailor onboard the Dutch sub when the crew were rescued. I have a group photo of that party in Fremantle.
Anyone else notice the Buddha belly at 28:34?
The COD was supposed to go into dry dock last fall, for an underwater survey/cleaning/repaint. Her last bottom inspection was back in the '60s. Yes, she is actually floating in Lake Erie... Anyway, she was supposed to be towed to Erie PA for the drydock, but the towing company backed out at the 11th hour. Now the COD is scheduled to be towed to Erie sometime this Spring (2021) for the underwater refurb..
She left this past Sunday to Erie pa , hitting a coast guard ship on the way out due to the tugs.
Check out the footage shot by a crew member during it. He posted several and gives an inside look at all the work done to her. Was a lot of work after sitting over 50 years. Awesome footage of her cutting a wake too.
I actually live in Ohio myself, good to know one of our more historic parts of the state is getting noticed!
I live in Ohio. I fixed it for you.
This is the most amazing video I have seen on RUclips for a long time
Now i want to eat cod while playing COD now
USS COD was SS-224, my father was radioman on USS SEACAT SS-399 which was one of 12 Subs that escorted the BB-63 Missouri into Tokyo Bay for the Surrender of the Japanese
and this is 80 years old, amazing
That's only when it was finished and put together...this was in the making for many years before that. What's being machined today for sub production, won't be a finished product for about 20 years.
It seems to be in a great shape, like you can just turn it on and go sinking ships at any time.
A: Sir, so you say you don't have cash for COD?
B: Sorry, I must have forgotten
A: No problem
B:
"Would you like that in Chum consistency, or little bits and pieces?"
A:
This was an AWESOME video....very well done !....I've seen the Cod many times down near whats called "The Flats" area of Cleveland....Very close to Cleveland Browns Stadium.....She's a beauty !....Oh my mistake ....First Energy Stadium.
Just watched another series of vids showing Cod being removed from her berth and towed up to a dry dock for much needed repairs.
Years ago I worke on the same sort of GE diesels that Cod had. The ones I worked on had been modernised with massive turbochargers. At Full throttle a big flame would shoot out of the exhausts.
GENUSGADUS
Thx
Thanks
Np
thx
@krakatoa fax
When I was Scoutmaster my scouts slept on the Silversides in Muskegon
Great video. My community lost a citizen aboard the Wahoo; a memorial marker is located in the cemetery.
Really missed watching these.
COD before COD become famous.
Just visited USS Cod
Thank you sir for an outstanding presentation of the USS Cod. Very informative. Sure hope I can visit someday. Greetings from Iceland.
Well done boys. My dad served on the USS Shangri-La CV-38 during WW2.
My Father was on the U.S.S. Redfin Gato class sub 42/43 and the U.S.S. Wasp Essex Class Aircraft Carrier 43/45🇺🇸
The Magnetic detonator worked properly, it just wasnt calibrated for equatorial latitude. New London CT where the Beuro of Ordinance for the submarine service is just above the 40th parallel, which has a tighter magnetic field as we get closer to the poles of the globe.
The other ignition problem encountered was the firing pin that was to travel accoss the axis of the torpedo. A right angle strike wouldn't detonate because of the inertial G force wouldn't allow the pin to travel upon impact. However a glancing angle strike there would be detonation. Ironically the fix was using the lightweight alloy from the propellers Japanese aircraft shot down at Pearl Harbor to fashion a lightweight version firing pin.
Dudley Walker Morton is the Leonidas of submarines. He took the submarine from a tool of observation to the weapon of war we know today. Many used the "down the throat" shot after he was the first to prove the right crew can do it. Plus Morton's tactics and knowledge was used by Richard O'kane to make O'kane the top sub skipper of ww2, and he happened to be Morton's former executive officer. I wonder what Morton could have done if he eventually got command of a Balao.
Saw one in person, very small, but packed full of stuff! And still bigger than a U-boat
Well since you already explain the artillery armament of submarines in the videos about submarines, I hope you do plan to introduce artillery armament for the submarines ingame too.
You should have these as a last ditch attempt at defending yourself as sub captain, having only one artillery gun of basically Destroyer caliber wouldn't be a real threat either, only when a target is about to die anyway.
Her sister ship the USS Croaker SS-246 is berthed in Buffalo,NY
Thin skin Subs. Defective torpedoes. Admirals in charge who deny problems and blame Skippers. Not a lot of recognition either.
I've been visiting this boat since I was old enough to walk so glad to see it get some recognition
Amazing to see the craftsmanship our forefathers were capable of some 80 years ago. And the heroes that actually went to war in those things, ...greater men than I !
Even longer before that. That's when it was all put together. But it would have taken many years of planning and building to get it to that point. I know they say what's currently being machined, won't be fully put together and in service for about 20 years.
"Run Silent, Run Deep" Great Movie.
Submarine Command is another good one
I have toured the USS Cod. Highly recommended!
Really well done video and a very fitting tribute to an outstanding and historic warship of the United States Navy.
What great history! Thank you.
Our pleasure! We are glad you enjoyed this episode and don't forget to check out the entire Naval Legends series on our channel!
These vids are absolutely phenomenal. Thanks World of Warships.
Wow, incredible technology for the time so fascinating.god bless those seaman for your service.uss cod thankyou to the sub and alll crew
Does anyone know the planned release of the Submarine update? I was a massive fan of Das Boot when I was a child and I would love to relive some of that.
Awesome episode as always! Thank you for putting these together!
Try playing Silent hunter 2 on steam, I have the original on PC and modded it for the das boot Alarm siren for the crash dives
@@WolfdogKitok I tried the sub battles and honestly I hated how they tried to make them playable. I was actually looking forward to slowly skulking around the battlefield and denying the enemy certain avenues of attack. Also I was hoping for each nation to have a better gimmick than, one has faster sonar, one has a faster ship, ect. Would have been cool if the Germans had homing torpedoes, the US had underwater longevity, and the Soviets could lay mines. Something other than trying to force a ship with such different battle tactics to play like everyone else.
Subs will destroy this game if added to Randoms. Keep it in its own mode or don't put them in the game.
4:26
General Motors, not General Electric. EMD (Electromotive Diesel Cleveland)
Who could put a thumbs down to this? True- war is horrible but those men and women who served are true heroes.
AWESOME!
"USS Cavalla, a Gato-class submarine, is a submarine of the United States Navy named for a salt water fish, best known for sinking the Japanese aircraft carrier Shōkaku." - Wikipedia
My father was a crewman on this boat. He was an electricians mate. His battle station was the forward torpedo room. He lost quite a bit of his hearing from both the deck guns and the loud machinery noise inside. His stories of approach and attack and being depth charged afterwards match these accounts very well. He also served on the Mingo and the Bergall.
When I was slim enough to fit thru the hatch many year's ago, I toured the COD. after all I was a native Clevelander who water skiied right up to the boat and also walked almost into a torpedo tube when lake Erie was frozen. This presentation was much, much better than my tour and I can appreciate how your dad endured the cramped environment. You have a great father!
@@raykudlak4713 Thanks Ray. Dad was also 6’4” he passed away in 1997. He was a great Dad.
t's amazing how clean and well appointed our subs were compared to the Germans and Japanese subs. Crew morale is a definite plus in war. My heart felt thanks to all of the courageous USN and Allied Submariners. I flew B-52's in Vietnam but I don't think I have the cajones to crew a submarine.
The advantage of having enough resources. Germans couldn't afford to build something this big unless all the space went towards ammo capacity or range. The Gatos were bigger than Type IXD, with half the range (so lots and lots of extra space that could be dedicated to creature comforts instead of more diesel).
What a technological marvel,beautiful ,gives me goose bumps
As of June 2021, U.S.S. Cod has left her museum dock and has traveled to Erie, PA for maintenance to keep her afloat and in good shape for years to come.
First time in over 50 years. The footage caught by someone on it is pretty amazing. To see it cutting a wake is captivating.
*Hats off to the "Bubble Heads"!* , I couldn't do it!!! When I joined in 81, I decided
I was not the right stuff for fighting in a ship meant to sink, just nope!!!!!! LOL :)
Oh yeah, and besides, I doubt my ASVAB was high enough anyway, if I remember, I think I got 70 or 71,
but that was cool with me, back at THAT time, if you had a 69 or better, again I don't remember the
exact number, you could join without having to have a high school diploma! :)
As soon as I turned 18, I dropped out of high school, and signed up under the delayed
entry program, and partied my butt off all spring, and part of summer, before I Went to boot in San Diego!
LOL Funny now that I think about it, I didn't need a diploma to join the Navy, but did to drive a truck (OR GED)! Go figure! ;)
...
Yeah watch the deck plates, when they start to move we're deep enough. They were heros or crazy.
Now. Keep an eye on this string. 'Cause the water pressure is gonna squeeze the hull of this boat like an empty beer can.
They were both heroes and crazy.
I miss studying the Cod from Hornblower's while eating clam dip.
I served on two nuc subs. On a submarine if something catches fire you put the fire out or die trying because if you don’t try you will die without trying.
The flooding put the fire out
WOW’s history videos are just fantastic!
Did the sailor really just rub buddas belly for good luck? 28:32
It's nice to see her in my home town getting Hall redone at the shipyard hear in Erie pa awesome document. I love history so dose my son
The Cod just finished her Refit/Refurb in Pennsylvania
She just went into drydock in erie, pa.
I love the naval legends videos keep em coming !
