On April 15, 75 years after the submarine Ulven’s mine blast off Gothenburg’s northern archipelago, a memorial ceremony was held at the Galär cementary, Djurgården in Stockholm for the dead crew.
In connection with the wreath-laying, among others, comodore Anders Olofsson (pictured) spoke. Afterwards, several of the participants gathered for a coffee hour in Dyktankhuset, where the dive tank still exists, where the submarine crews trained.
Donations The association often receives nice donations to Dyktankhuset, which we gratefully receive even though it is crowded among our collections.

On Saturday, December 1, a large number of interested members gathered at Dyktankhuset. There they got to life not only mulled wine and gingerbread, but words and movies about the fantastic Kronan project.

Many methods were first developed. In the audience there were many who took part in this work and were able to share their experiences, which gave extra spice to the evening.

In conjunction with the meeting, diplomas were awarded for the heavy diving, which took place in conjunction with the Swedish Days in May. Seven dives took place and three of the ”brave” were able to receive their diplomas during the evening.

Arne Zetterström’s grave has been given a much needed plaster for the Christmas holidays and the upcoming international dive event in Stockholm in May next year.
Why not make an excursion to Nynäshamn’s northern cemetery and honor our greatest dive researcher with a visit. The grave is just below the belfry. Arne Zetterström was killed by a tragic mistake in connection with an experimental dive with hydrox to 165 m outside Nynäshamn 17 August 1945.
