POST 27 Apr SS
Navy Teams Board Bonefish
But Are Unable to Enter
3 Still Missing From Crippled Submarine
By Molly Moore
Washington Post Staff Writer
Navy teams boarded the crippled
submarine USS Bonefish yesterday,
closing hatches to keep the diesel-
powered vessel from sinking in high
seas, but poor weather prevented
them from going inside to search
for three missing crew members,
Navy officials said.
Adm. Carlisle A.H. Trost, chief of
naval operations, said the missing
men may have died while saving the ?
lives of their colleagues after the
submarine was rocked by five ex-
plosions in its battery compartment
late Sunday.
"All three of those individuals ? . .
were on watch in the ship's control
room and were last seen there,"
Trost told NBC News. "So it may
well be that they simply ensured:
that everyone got-clear, and they'
themselves didn't make it"
The submarine's commander or-
dered the crew to evacuate Sunday;
after the vessel began filling with
smoke and toxic fumes, Of 22 crew-
men hospitalized for injuries, Navy
officials said 19 were released in
Jacksonville, Fla., yesterday after-
noon and returned to their home
port of Charleston, S.C.
Safety concerns had delayed ef-
forts to enter the damaged subma-
rine about 160 miles east of Cape !!
Canaveral,"a spokesman said. Navy
officials said they believe that the
219-foot submarine could be filled
with hydrogen and other toxic
fumes.
Last night, a boarding crew be-
gan ventilating the submarine and
testing what a naval spokesman said

** With hydrogen, you run the risk

you've got it right before you
