Episode 25 The Disappearance of Lionel Buster Crabb

Lieutenant-Commander Lionel Kenneth Phillip Crabb (28 January 1909 – presumed dead 19 April 1956) known as Buster Crabb, was a Royal Navy frogmanand diver who vanished during a reconnaissance mission for MI6 around a Soviet cruiser berthed at Portsmouth Dockyard in 1956.

rumours persisted that the soviets had killed Crabb, that he had defected or that he was sent as a double agent for MI6 to spy on the soviets.

Despite a headless and handless body being washed up in 1957, which was controversially claimed to have been Crabb's, no conclusive proof of Crabb's fate has ever surfaced.

his files into his disappearance are marked not to be related until at least 2050.

which makes you wonder... what exactly happened to Lionel "Buster" Crabb?
