USS Lagarto documentary wins Emmy

 

As part of MV Trident's discovery of the lost WW2 submarine USS Lagarto and subsequent identification dives together with the US Navy, our teams of divers recorded detailed information on the condition of the sub. Underwater footage and data gathered has contributed to a film documentary.

'Lost and Found' investigates the loss of the USS Lagarto, focusing on the submarine's history and crew, events leading up to her sinking, and heart-felt memories and perspectives of family members.

"We are delighted to announce that on Saturday night, 7 November 2009, the documentary, "Lost and Found", about the submarine USS Lagarto was awarded three Emmys. It picked up up 5 nominations, including one for outstanding cinematography, and went home with 3 awards. We are proud to have been involved in such a spectacular and significant film and could not even have imagined that our underwater footage could have helped to bring about such acclaim."
