Recovering Navy Planes in Lake Michigan with Taras Lyssenko

(Previously Aired on 11/26/2019) Taras Lyssenko wrote a new book with everything from mystery and adventure, to government dealings and World War II history. "The Great Navy Birds of Lake Michigan" documents a 30-year-long effort to recover WWII-era Navy planes from Lake Michigan. He introduces the long-lost history of how Navy pilots trained and sometimes lost their lives and aircraft over Lake Michigan. It offers an inside look at his company’s recovery & salvage efforts and their sometimes-contentious relationship with federal agencies. These submerged Navy planes now find themselves in muesums and public spaces around the United States. Taras talks with host Jim Fausone of VeteransRadio.org to explain how this passion started for two Army guys and how it keeps history alive.
