I have doc file with first part of the story. Cannot find the source or author. I assume the name of the story "Sunken Submarine".
The start:
The commander gazed at her and sighed. She wished there was another way but since losing main air purification plant mid-ships they had to rely on just compressed air and on keeping activity to minimum to keep from suffocating. water here along north coast of Venezuela was teaming with enemy surface ships so they could not surface for air.
With a crew of 15 she had calculated that they could complete – but just barely complete – mission if they could reduce oxygen load by at least a third.
So they Commander ordered some crew to proceed to airlock and drown there:
The number 2 diver entered airlock and water started to fill. She decided to hasten her drowning by not holding her breath at all. She took one short breath – blew it all way out and bent to put her face in water as it rose. Feeling that almost impossible urge to survive, she almost jumped up to breathe but she held her face under. water filled chamber and she congratulated herself. She gripped ladder and held her head underwater until airlock was full.
The sub was almost back at first diver and crew on board rushed to glass ports to see if they could spot her. hatch popped open allowing second diver to exit.
The second diver could hold her breath with full lungs for up to 4 minutes but with no air in them she was already feeling overwhelming urge to breathe in! She clamped her lips.
Oops! She put her hand to her mouth as she swallowed a gulp of water. This was going to end badly... She knew that and she smiled ruefully to herself – but it was going to end badly soon!
And the end of my file: To be continued.
Please, anyone can provide information about author, source?
I am very interesting in voluntary drown stories, so if you can help with other stories it would be great.
