Rings Found From Submarine Thresher Debris Search
Fifteen small boxes of metal rings used as repair parts aboard many U S Navy ships were recovered from the ocean floor during the Thresher submarine search. The rings, called O rings, were found by the Lamont laboratory ship Conrad with drag lines in the area of prime interest near the Thresher search. The nuclear sub Thresher sank April 10 during a test dive with 129 men aboard 220 miles off Boston. Capt. Frank A. Andrews left the search area for a Woods Hole conference with a technical advisory group to guide future operations. A naval court of inquiry in Portsmouth NH studies fresh ocean floor photos to determine how the Thresher sank.
