ing made the deepest dive on record
in connection with salvage opera
tions on the submarine 0-9 which
sank June 81 last year of Ports
mouth, N. H., the Navy announced
yesterday.
Mr.. Conger, along with Robert M.
Metzger, both of whom are stationed
at the experimental diving unit at
the Washington Navy Yard, made
a dive of 440 feet, the greatest depth
ever reached in a conventional div
ing suit.
Mr.. Conger said he had been down
to 400 feet for half hour intervals
on several occasions but the 440-foot
dive was for a period of 10 minutes.
He could notice no appreciable
difference in sensation at the two
levels, he said.
His citation from Secretary Of the

heroic conduct and distinguished
service in connection with the SAL

much valuable information to the
safety of undersea craft and diving
operations. None of the 80 officers
