If you have five minutes, you might find this interesting. Several of these guys named were my classmates (1974). I was unaware of this episode. https://www.navalhistory.org/2018/1...ussian-fishing-trawler-captain-who-saved-them
Can only imagine the ordeal they went through, from the crash to being soaking wet in tiny ass life raft enduring the heavy seas for 20+ hours. I've sailed the North Pacific and the Bering Sea and I was miserable just working on deck and getting splashed by freezing cold over spray, so it must have been torture for those poor dudes. Glad most of them made it out alive.
