Thought to have been lost, this rare footage from a 1999 CNN Live
broadcast was found in the SS United States Foundation archives. The
footage is grainy and flows more like a movie from the silent screen
era, but some wonderful footage remains! This footage is the only
known national news broadcast featuring maritime legend Frank O
Braynard. The short interview with SSUSF Chairman Robert Westover is
also (to date) the only known Big U engine interview to appear on
national prime time TV.
