#HappyBirthday to Master Diver Carl M. Brashear! Born #OTD in 1931, Brashear had dreams of becoming a U.S. Navy Diver despite the many obstacles that would be in his path. Brashear's #integrity, #accountability, #initiative, and #toughness were essential in his becoming a Salvage Diver at the U.S. Navy Diving School in Bayonne, N.J., and beyond.
Read how USS Hoist, atomic bombs, and a towing line all played a part in this #NavyLegend's career that would be the inspiration for a major #Hollywood film - http://go.usa.gov/cUr5G
