A fishing trawler's nets, in the frigid North Atlantic, has came up with
more than just fish it seems. When the main nets were hoisted aboard
the ship “Blue Gull”, the crewmen discovered something about six feet
long and bright red, a source said. “At first all I saw was something
red and oblong” Daniel Prish said. “I told the others to go slow and
open the net gently. What I saw astonished me. A Nazi swastika
emblazoned on a bright red flag was staring at me. The first thing I
thought was how pristine, and in perfect condition it looked. When I
went to grab it I could tell right away what it was. It was obvious at
that point that it was a body.”
Prish went on to describe how
they carefully unwrapped the the 65 year old Nazi flag and found the
corpse of a Nazi sailor who had been buried at sea with full honors.
Reports from various fisherman on board said it was perfectly preserved
by the frigid water of the North Atlantic. Josh Campbell reported that
it looked like it had been wrapped and thrown into the ocean the day
before. The corpse was complete with uniform, medals, facial and scalp
hair intact.
“It really creeped me out at first as the eyes were
open and milky white staring right at me, and the skin had a grayish
blue color to it” Campbell said.
The coast guard was called as
per maritime law and the corpse and flag were all turned over to some
very astonished servicemen. Its unclear at this point what happened to
the body, and the Coast Guard isn't forth coming with any information as
of yet about the incident except to confirm a body was retrieved from
the fishing vessel “Blue Gull.”
