| Notes | (i) This was increased to 350 feet in the all-welded boats. |

While reading an old edition of the Submariners News I noticed a name in the Xmas greetings column that brought back a few memories of my time in the 4th squadron based at Hunters bay in Sydney. That name was Buckwheat Harris or to give him his proper name Donald John Nathaniel Harris (according to buckwheat).
From Director Kevin Macdonald (The Last King Of Scotland) comes this gripping thriller about a rogue submarine captain, played by Jude Law (Sherlock Holmes, The Talented My Ripley) who pulls together a misfit crew to search for sunken treasure in the Black Sea.
As greed and desperation take control, the increasing uncertainty of the mission causes the men to turn on each other to fight for their own survival.
