My take on the whole spy balloon situation.

Below is a link to a video (not mine) of a dive on the John Morgan.

John Morgan. (110 fsw) 7,176 ton Liberty ship sunk on it's maiden voyage on June 1, 1943 after colliding with the SS Montana. The John Morgan was loaded with lend-lease cargo which included trucks, motorcycles, P-39 airplanes, 10 Valentine tanks and tons of assorted weapons. This is one of the most interesting wrecks off of the Virginia coast to explore. 

Also dove the Eureka. A four hour boat ride to get there, and well worth it. I have  a great story from that dive.

Eureka. (115 fsw) 3,531 ton four masted steam schooner sunk after colliding with the British steamer Benison on May 6, 1888. The Eureka was en route from New York to New Orleans with a cargo of general merchandise. Some of the artifacts recovered include porcelain dolls, miniature sets of china, numerous types of bottles, steam gauges, deadeyes, portholes, a small bell, a silver lantern, a gold pocket watch, and an ornate capstan cover. This is a fascinating wreck.
