Long-Lost World War II Submarine Found After 25-year Search

Kostas Thoctarides,a veteran Greek diver specializing in locating sunken ships, reported earlier this month that his team had located the wreck of HMS Triumph. This World War II submarine had been missing since 1942. Kostas began his search for the vessel in 1998 and it finally paid off in 2023.

The HMS Triumph was located at a depth of 670 feet at an undisclosed location in the Aegean Sea. Kostas described the exhaustive search as “the hardest mission I have ever undertaken in my life.” It’s nice to see that this long-lost World War II sub has finally been found.
