Deep-Sea Stories
Deep-Sea Stories is about U.S. Navy Divers. I interview the living historians of Navy Divers who talk about Navy Divers and dive commands we served. These are the same stories we told sitting at bars and beaches all over the world with Navy Divers. We want to communicate as many Deep-Sea Stories as possible. When someone asks about Navy Divers 200 years from now, our memories will live through our Deep-Sea Stories.

Episode 3
Pepper Shirley talks about his Navy Dive friends Mike Cox, Ralph Bonnen, and Shawn Fannin. Pepper and his friends moved the propellers from in front of the Navy Diving and Salvage Training Center to the Navy Experimental Dive Unit commanding officers parking lot as a practical joke. Pepper also talks about conducting Battle Damage repairs to Navy Ships while stationed on the USS Jason. He supported the mini-subs Alvin and Mystic. He also talks about supporting saturation dives in the Gulf of Mexico as a commercial diver. Master Diver George Powell directs Pepper Shirley to don and conducts the first-ever MK 1 mod 0 Band Mask dive.
