Rescue of Roger Mallinson and Roger Chapman
The rescue of Roger Mallinson and Roger Chapman occurred between 29 August and 1 September, 1973 after their Vickers Oceanics' small submersible ''Pisces III'' was trapped on the seabed at a depth of , off Ireland in the Irish Sea. The 76-hour multinational rescue effort resulted in the deepest sub rescue in history.
==The submersible and the men==
The Canadian commercial submersible ''Pisces III'' measured ( long by wide by high.〔 It was built by International Hydrodynamics of North Vancouver, British Columbia, and had been launched in 1969. ''Pisces III'' originally had tail fins, which were removed when the submersible was purchased by Vickers Oceanics. If the fins had been retained, they would have prevented the entanglement of the towline on the craft's machinery sphere which caused the 1973 accident.
''Pisces III'' had sunk once before, during trials in Vancouver Bay in 1971. Peter Messervy of Vickers Oceanics, who would lead the rescue team after the 1973 accident, was one of the pilots who were rescued by the Canadian Defense Ministry submersible ''SDL-1''.〔''No Time On Our Side'' (Chapman), p. 84.〕〔''Manned Submersibles'' (Busby), p. 688.〕
The ''Pisces III'' submersible was crewed by 28-year-old pilot Roger Chapman, a former Royal Navy submariner, and 35-year-old engineer and senior pilot Roger Mallinson. Chapman had been invalided out of the Royal Navy due to less-than-perfect eyesight. Both men were married.〔〔''No Time On Our Side'' (Chapman), pp. 13, 115.〕
