Commander Stanley Kowalski having been asked by the Navy department even though he's been working for the Nelson Institute and the Seaview.

General Hancock of the Naval Divers department had asked his old friend on whether he was able to do a special assignment in the South Pacific doing repair work for an old submarine for the Navy from the 1960's.

It had been lost The Salvation with a crew of 100 when it developed radiation from one of there missiles. Half the crew had died just prior to the other half being saved by divers some one thousand feet above crush deep.

Commander Kowalski having been asked by Admiral Nelson after receiving the information from General Hancock on whether he would be available for a few weeks to help out with the repairs. Even though the general had mention that two pieces of one section just could be a problem being dangerous for anyone working during that depth.

Even though with Stanley Kowalski, he's been installed with the special Gils by the Institute and Commander Rose Marie Crane project. However the divers wearing those Gils can only dive at a certain depth before getting into trouble.

So Commander Kowalski won't be using them instead a special diving suit like the one he used to use years ago when he was rescued by Captain Lee Crane.

It's only been the past two years he's been working for Admiral Nelson after being asked to transfer over to the private sector. Even his own brother was pleased that he would be able to see him more often having to be serving on the Seaview.

Currently at his Institute's apartment packing. Kowalski was very excited with the work. When his brother knocked on the door since the Seaview was docked after a week doing training exercises with the Navy.

Stanley was moving his suit case with his personal belongings when his brother walked in with his civilian. "Brother it's great to see you again, even though I will be leaving soon with waiting for the helicopter to pick me up at the heliport to take me to the carrier." Stanley said with a strong hug with his brother.

"Good luck Stan. How many other divers will be helping you out with the special assignment?" He asked with turning to face the front door.

"One other. He's also a diver in the private field. However I will meet him once I get onto the carrier. By the way where are you going in your civilian clothing?" He asked in a serious tone knowing that his brother loves to play cards with his friends.

"Over to Patterson's place to meet up with Sharkey and Riley to play real serious black jack for dough brother. I need to go, Try sending me a message from the carrier that you were able to make it."

"I will see to it brother." As once again a strong hug from him before breaking it and his younger brother walked out of the apartment to head for the card game.
