Bill,

Your history is probably better than the word of mouth I got mine from.
Glad to hear something was done with the piano that kept it alive.

If you are interested in older sub history, my uncle had a book called "United States Submarine Operations in World War 2". He was on ~11 subs during WW2, having been a Chief Gunners Mate when the war broke out. He was on the boat that attacked Tokyo harbor, and another that was rammed and sunk with "all hands lost" until he was picked up a month later. He was the first man out the hatch when the destroyer rammed the boat cutting it in half.
The book is still available from the United States Naval Institute.
