Buster Crabb

Some people might not be aware of the story of the end of Buster Crabb, the famous wartime diver.

In 1956, he was a shadow of his former self when he was called upon to carry out one last mission for the intelligence services. His task was carryout a underwater survey of the russian battleship carrying Soviet leaders to Britian.

His headless body was found floating nearby and now a former russian diver has come forward to claim responsibility for his death.

I've usually read any news article that's appeared about Buster, and everytime I get more and more confusued. And I have to say that I smell a rat on this one just because the guy claims Buster was trying to attach a mine. Why would he be doing that?

The various conspiracies are mentioned on the wiki site:
