Amazing

The tug wasn't shown but a couple of minutes of the finding of the Hornet and a showing of a 95 year old sailor (survivor of the sinking) viewing footage of his assigned gun mount. They did mention 17,000 ft.

The shop mule is half the size of a W-4. You can park one completely on a sheet of plywood, or put it inside a pickup truck.

I'm not sure if the Navy ever used I-4 tractors (industrial W-4). I know they used Case SI tractors aboard ships and elsewhere, which is a similar size or a bit smaller than an I-4/W-4. And Case DI tractors which are a bit bigger (close to W-6 size).
