The Story of the USS Cyclops

The USS Cyclops was built in 1910 to haul coal during World War I. In 1918, the ship and its 300 crew members disappeared at sea. After three months of searching for the vessel, the US Navy declared it lost at sea. The infamous Flight 19 took off from Fort Lauderdale's Naval Air Station on December 5th 1945 with a group of 14 men between them. Just 23 minutes later, two search and rescue planes took off to find their missing comrades. But 20 minutes intotheir mission, one of them went silent and vanished. Nothing related to flight 19 has ever been seen again.
