To whom it may concern at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute: As we were able to learn more about the REMUS SharkCam‚ I would like to compliment the hard work of the scientists to acquire the data on sharks. Many people usually depict sharks as dangerous marine animals but with the footage it was seen that they are only living their lives responding with what their natural instinct tells them as any other animal‚ including us. It was amazing to learn the sixth and seventh sense sharks have and

unheard of because he needed to fire through the propeller. Many thought this was suicidal but Garros had put steel plates on the rear of the propeller blades to deflect any bullets. The unsuspecting Germans failed to evade the oncoming Garros and consequently within sixteen days he had taken down five German planes and became the first allied flying ace. This machine gun idea was later improved by Anthony Fokker‚ a Dutchman. He synchronized the propeller with the gun firing mechanisms so that the
