At random: Interests in submarines extends to royalty and presidents. The King of England and the King and Queen of Spain are among those who have made submerged cruises in submarines. As a result of a trip in an early United States submarine, President "Teddy" Roosevelt ordered extra compensation for personnel serving in the "Silent Service." President Harry Truman made a 440 foot dive in a captured German submarine. The first President to cruise aboard a nuclear submarine was President Eisenhower who rode the USS SEAWOLF out of Newport, Rhode Island on September 26, 1957.

Subject: Voge speed spread diagram

I am looking for a picture and/or info about the Voge speed spread diagram, used on WW2 subs to aid in computing firing solutions. It was created by LCDR Voge while he was in command of USS SAILFISH in early 1942. The diagram was in graph format and was based upon 200% target length coverage with a divergent spread. Don't know more about it but would be interested in any info you might have.

Thanks,
Urge
