Hey I was just messing around looking at the latest and greatest scuba toys and I thought about look at the history. Here are some cool links on what I found.

That was some real cool reading material. Im all ways interested in historical documents on scuba related subjects.

There is some nice basic history in the US Navy Dive manual as well. I have it on the site as a free download in a PDF format, but the first chapter on history is there just in html.

Can't remember the name at the moment but the next time you are in the Key's there is a scuba museum that is very cool.

I think of some of the setup that they had back then and am gratful for the advances we have today. They make diving so much easier and enjoyable. We owe a lot to the pioneers.
