The CIA Stole a Soviet Sub & Then Gave the Sailors a Funeral: Project Azorian

During the Cold War, the Soviet submarine K-129 mysteriously sank in the Pacific Ocean with 98 sailors on board. The Soviets couldn’t find it… but the CIA did.

In one of the most audacious secret operations in history, the United States launched Project Azorian — a billion-dollar mission to steal an entire nuclear submarine from the ocean floor using a massive ship built by Howard Hughes as cover.

They raised part of the sub, recovered Soviet nuclear missiles, codebooks, and the bodies of six sailors. Then, in a bizarre twist, the CIA gave those dead Soviet sailors a solemn military funeral at sea… while secretly keeping their remains for intelligence purposes.

This is the wild true story of how the CIA robbed the dead in the middle of the Pacific — one of the most expensive, secretive, and morally complex operations of the entire Cold War.

From underwater espionage to Hollywood-level deception, this dark history story still sounds unbelievable today.
