I seem to have some recollection of attack dolphins being destroyed, but can't recall when or where. Seems to have been associated more with Key West than the west coast.
HofT - how did I miss that thread?
Roger - yeah, the keys sound familiar.... maybe training?
Little K - sorry for delay in replying; just got back from overseas. Posted USN dolphins update at Lola's Salon. Here however would like to post correction to my previous post - dolphins with the USN live to be well over 40 years old, those out in the oceans average 20 to 25 years. Regret the error.
Phoenix - waited some time before bringing this to your attention: hope your health is OK, as it's so unlike you to parachute into threads and re-post links already posted by someone else 3 or 4 entries earlier.
P.S. On the off chance anyone still following news about dolphins, this is a link to another site with some info I posted. By mistake used wrong board, so will have to re-post, but here's the current link anyway:

Thanks to Phoenix and everyone else who showed interest.
