Submarine picture instead of Ehime Maru picture[edit]

In the upper right, why is there a picture of a submarine where either the Ehime Maru's picture or no picture ought to be?

Because this is an article about a submarine, not the Ehime Maru or nothing. ➥the Epopt 00:49, 22 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah... I was tricked by the redirect on the Ehime Maru page. It links back to the USS Greeneville page. :) --FFLaguna 06:47, 26 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name?[edit]

Why was it named for Greeneville, TN? Seems like a small, random town to get a submarine named after it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Awiseman (talk • contribs) 18:04, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was always under the impression it was named for Greenville, SC. I'll have to look for confirmation.Garand70 (talk) 18:15, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there no mention of the boat winning "Battle E" under (I believe) Hankins? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.87.169.97 (talk) 04:54, 19 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like a lot of high praise for Hankins ... appropriate / verified? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.218.5.113 (talk) 03:34, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

article badly needs referencing[edit]

Needs work from the editors who added the material in the first place. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.169.29.40 (talk) 11:40, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
