Jay M. Cohen, i first classrrcn (senior) at the Naval Academy, attended a lecture by Jacques Cousteau, the noted oceanographer, who was then visiting the Academy. As a result of this experience, Midshipman Cohen is on his way to what promise! to be an exciting Naval career one tint should benefit the Navy, industry and scientific research. ON OCT. 27, he made a successful 4,000 foot deep dive ia the Atlantic Ocean off New York.

The descent was made in the Westinghouse "Deep Star," a deep submersible vehicle under charter for this descent to the U. S. Oceanographic Office. Naval It was his second descent in a research submersible since undertaking the study of future designs for such vehicles as part of his Trident Scholar research project at the U. S.

Naval Academy. Cohen's first dive, in the "Aluminaut," was made off St. Croix, Virgin Islands last spring and took him to a depth of 3100 feet. AS A Trident Scholar and in the top 5 per cent of his class, Midshipman Cohen is devoting his entire senior year to a research project i i designs of deeo submergence vehicles, propulsion and navigation of such vehicles, logistic support such a vehicle will require, and the role they may take in tomorrow's Navy. The project is titled, "Conceptual Design and Feasibility Study of Second and Third jeneration Deep Submergence Vehicles." PATTERNED after an Associate Professor of Oceanography In Naval Science Department Professor Hendrix is a retired Navy Captain, former Naval Academy graduate and submariner who has been one of the pioneers in naval oceanography since as early as J9U.

Professor Bruce Johnson of the Engineering Department is co-advisor for the pi eject THE NAVY'S submergence program is still In its infant stages. As a result, Cohen's wcrk has immediate value to the Navy In helping to develop the broad spectrum of oceanographic research, deep submergence, and deep ocean technology. In addition to its scientific applications, deep submergence vehicles may enable the Navy to make further i military uses of the seas. The design of such vehicles is the subject of Cohen's work. In addition to his two deep dives, Cohen spent parts of his summer at-sea training in Navy combatant submarines in Submarine Flotilla One in San Diego, and attending briefings by some of the leading scientific industrial and military experts on deep a technology.

MIDSHIPMAN Cohen a visited, through the help and assistance of Professor Hendrix, Bathyscaph Trieste; the of the.Director of Deep Submergence Systems Projects, ocated in San Diego; Scripps Institute of Oceanography; Navy L'nderwater Test Facility; and Weslinghouse Underseas Research Office.
