That describes what we did in Project #AZORIAN (aka #Glomar), a highly secret 6-year effort to retrieve a sunken Soviet submarine from the Pacific Ocean floor, one of the greatest intel successes of the #ColdWar. And the claw… her name was Clementine. https://t.co/SY57So1CpH https://t.co/GMpmaUZg73 — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s how we like to explain Project #AZORIAN: Imagine standing atop Empire State Building w/8-foot-wide grappling hook on 1-inch-diameter steel rope. You must lower hook to street below, snag tiny car full of gold, & lift car back to top of building… without anyone noticing. — PolitiTweet.org

During the Cold War, the C.I.A. secretly plucked a Soviet submarine from the ocean floor using a giant claw. https://t.co/FDGiEEYFLZ
