Expedition Burma Maru-revealing long lost mystery

Burma maru (4585 Grt) was sunk by USS Swordfish on the 12th of June 1942 during WW2 some 60 ntm southwest of Koh Rong, Cambodia.

After a long but very exiting search we are proud to say that she has been found on 21st of February 2017 after being lost almost 75 years!
