The Incredible Mr. Limpet
India launches the world's first organic Navy, planning to deploy dolphins to blow up enemy warships and submarines. Early trials have succeeded in training dolphins to plant the "Maindeka" limpet mine onto enemy ships. O.P. Yadav, a general manager of India's Kirkee ammunition plant, which supplies the mines, told Indian reporters that the 15 lb limpet mines, magnetically fixed to enemy hulls, can sink ships of any size.
