What a bunch of hypocrites. After not allowing Gary Gentile and others to even touch the Monitor (to the point where they had NOAA monitors on the dive boat), they literally destroyed the wreck to recover the gun turret. That same gun gun turret they are no longer funding to conserve. These clowns have had a blank checkbook for way too long. Beware of former wreck divers turned archaeologists, now working with NOAA. These people are not your friends. The only result will be restricted or no access to the wrecks that we all love to dive.
