Guess they should have left it on the bottom, what a shame. I still remember when they brought this up and they had the ceremony with the sailors, it was very touching.

This is a disgrace and slap in the face to those that have lost their lives on the Great Lakes. This was to be maintained as one of the greatest artifacts of the Great Lakes. First and foremost though, as a memorial to those that lost their lives that fateful night. November 10, 1975 This lack of care and respect is very upsetting and must be stopped.

The Bell needs to be protected from the GLSHS! The Michigan State University preserved it as an artifact. The GLSHS, stripped it. Now it is pitted, and is deteriorating.
