NORTH SEA (Sept. 3, 2016) — Crewmembers of the Military Sealift Command rescue and salvage ship USNS Grasp (T-ARS 51) and Mobile Diving and Salvage Unit Two help lower the ship’s workboat into the water, Sept. 3, 2016. Underwater archaeologists from the Naval History and Heritage Command are aboard Grasp conducting a remote sensing survey of a shipwreck that may be that of Revolutionary War ship Bonhomme Richard. Commanded by John Paul Jones, Bonhomme Richard was lost Sept. 23, 1779 following her victory over the much more heavily armed HMS Serapis.
