And during the dive they will also try to work out the mystery of how they were lost, given there is no shipwreck nearby.
The tanks, assigned to the Royal Marines Armoured Support Group, lie eight miles off East Wittering, West Sussex.
They were part of an 80-strong contingent bound for France on D-Day but sank in mysterious circumstances...[The News]
