More than 40 members of the Bathyscaphe Trieste Alumni Association gathered and reminisced at the Naval Undersea Museum-Keyport, as part of their bi-annual alumni reunion Sept. 13-17. In the group was Retired Capt. Don Walsh who talked about his time as the pilot of the Bathyscaphe Trieste, one of only two manned submarines ever to explore the deepest part of the ocean, the Challenger Deep in the Marianas Trench, the rest of the group contained people who worked on or piloted its predecessor, deep submergence vehicle Trieste II (DSV 1), the first deep submergence vehicle built by the U.S. Navy, following its acquisition of the original Trieste bathyscaphe, which is permanently on display outside of the museum.
