Our MissionThe Mark Five Monument project is an endeavor to erect an eight foot tall bronze JAKE monument to celebrate all graduates of all U.S. Navy Diving Schools past, present & future that go down in the sea to work; divers around the world who have given their life’s work to underwater ships husbandry, underwater construction, salvage of ships lost at sea, combat, and clandestine missions. Their method of training and development of equipment set standards adopted by the international diving community, from the developmental, mixed gas diving techniques used to save Squalus survivors to the saturation procedures developed by Sealab Program. This monument will celebrate their traditions forever. There still seems to be some confusion because of our committee’s previous association with Homeland Security Policy Institute Group (HSPIG) and their endeavor to erect a Man In The Sea Memorial at the Washington Navy Yard. Without going into a long explanation of the past, let us say this. We are not associated with HSPIG. We have decided the most logical place to erect the monument is at the Naval Diving and Salvage Training Center (NDSTC) in Panama City Florida.
