As many of you know, I have been working on a plan to save the USS Triton (SSRN 586) from being scrapped. I am starting to work on the final paper to the National Park Service, but I need some help. The final paper has been delayed due to research I have been doing on the Triton. In my research, I have found some books (2 or 3) that mention the Triton as having an operational prototype of a surface ship nuclear propulsion system instead of a typical submarine reactor and propulsion system. If so, this would add greatly to the reasons for saving her. However, I have not found a "smoking gun" that would conclusively prove this. If anyone can help prove this, please let me know soon. This is the last thing I need for the package.
