Rickover writes US Representative William H. Natcher from “at sea” in the North Atlantic.

The ship completed all tests, including full power operation, both surface and submerged. The WHALE, second United States submarine to bear this name, was built by the General Dynamics Corporation.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
