Whats Inside the Turret?
Scientists expect to find the two iron Dahlgren 11-in cannons inside the turret. They also expect to find two cannon carriages made of a wood and iron composite, and two serving implements. However, it is possible that they may find sea bags containing personal possessions of the sailors who occupied the vessel, and possibly human remains as well. If remains are found, representatives from the U.S. Army Central Identification Laboratory, based in Hawaii will be on hand to provide assistance.
