These kind of long, agonizing, pointless deaths are all too common when dealing with the ocean.

There was a horrifying case after Pearl Harbor where bodies were found in the airpocket of the USS West Virginia. They had flashlights with batteries and fresh water and had marked off 16 days on a calendar.

Legend has it that sailors could hear banging for weeks knowing they could not cut through the thick battleship armor in time and just drowned out the noise.

A sometime co-worker's father was on a salvage crew at Pearl Harbor, and apparently heard the banging.
