There is no possible recovery of bodies from a submarine which has imploded below crush depth. For one thing, the submarine doing the recovery would have to be capable to exceeding the original submarine's crush depth. The main reason however, is that the compression of the atmosphere inside the submarine at the moment of implosion reportedly heats the air to incandescence, incinerating the crew.
Aboard submarines of the US Navy, officers and chief petty officers do not wear their combination caps belowdecks while on watch, although those in this episode consistently do so.
The Bodies, in the ocean for 25 or so years, would have been completely devoured by ocean bacteria and other such ocean life that devours almost everything foreign. That's why bodies of the dead in the ocean over a period of time cannot be found. At the time of the alleged show, subs were available to recover bodies. The incandescence, which could incinerate the crew varies in intensity depending on depth, and at 1500 ft, this may not have occurred.
Several orders in the control room of the submarine are absurd and comical. They include:
"Sneak us out of here, CoB". [The CO or other conning officer, not the CoB, gives the specific orders (for the rudder, course, bubble, and depth) to the sailors at the control yokes; the conning officer does not surrender the conn of the boat to the CoB.]
"20-degree down angle on the bow". [An up bubble or a down bubble is completely different from an angle on the bow, which describes the aspect which another ship presents to one's own vessel (measured to port or starboard from the bow of the other vessel to the line of sight).]
A report of "15 knots and climbing", then "steady as you go". [The correct order is "steady as she goes" (not "as you go"), and that order tells a helmsman to steady on whatever heading the ship has at the moment; it has nothing to do with speed.]
"Equalize the ballast tanks" and "neutral buoyancy" (as orders to watchstanding sailors, especially during a crisis, as here, are downright ludicrous. [To save the boat the skipper needed positive buoyancy, not neutral buoyancy, to get the boat back to the surface. Presumably the boat already was in trim and therefore had neutral buoyancy before the emergency began to develop.]
It is shown that a cable tapping mission was conducted in 1968, but he cable tapping missions conducted by the US Navy took place in the 1970s.
The admiral who was former COMSUBPAC says he retired in 1970, but wears campaign medals awarded in the 1991 Gulf War as well as three National Defense Service Medals, which also would not be possible without Gulf War service.
