Description:
The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) was founded in 1930, and throughout its
history has had a strong involvement in research into the science and applications of sound in the
ocean. In terms of a brief history, three eras stand out: (1) pre-WWII, (2) WWII, and (3) the
postwar years. This manuscript will focus on the history of the most influential and colorful, individuals
and stories that arose during the war years. Provided are personal reminiscences, technical report details,
and photos illustrating the achievements, and importance, in underwater sound research at WHOI during
that time.
