New documentary claims mission to find Titanic ‘was covert US Navy operation’

“My mission was to find those reactors and find those weapons. But we
didn’t want the Soviets to know that we were doing that or they’d put a
satellite on us and we’d lead them to our submarines,” said Dr Ballard.

“And so we needed a cover and I suggested naturally the Titanic, because
I wanted to find the Titanic. And so we then went out and actually did our
covert operations and then went and did the Titanic, but there was only a
few days left.”

Save the Titanic with Bob Ballard is due to be broadcast on Monday,
April 9 at 8pm on the National Geographic Channel.
