USS Cod - Submarine Rescue Re-Enactment
The USS Cod will celebrate the 80th anniversary of history's only international submarine-to-submarine rescue on Saturday, July 12 at 2 pm.
On that day in 1945 USS Cod rescued the 55-man crew of the Dutch submarine O19 after it grounded on Ladd Reef, deep in enemy waters. After two days of failed attempts to pull the Allied sub free the crew was taken aboard Cod and the O19 destroyed. Cod's rescue earned her an honorary place in the Netherlands submarine force.
On July 12 Cod will stage a reenactment of the boat crew transfer and salute the friendship between the two nations with a deck gun demonstration and refreshments.
See their website for more details: USS COD HOMEPAGE

Unwritten History Lecture: Civil War Nurses
Nancy Haas, RN, BSN, MPA and Cleveland Grays Board Member, will give a presentation on Nurses of the Civil War.
Female Civil War Nurses defied societal norms to meet a need for the care of wounded and dying soldiers. In the 1860’s women did not dare care for unrelated men or work outside the home without risk to their and their families’ reputations. Yet thousands of women served nurses in the new Army Nursing Corp or as volunteers and left their homes and risked their own health to care for the wounded and ill. The Civil War was the birth of U.S. Nursing.
This lecture is free and open to members of Grays Armory as well as the public.
The Unwritten History Series is made possible by a grant from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture.
