I love the part when they were on the upturned hull of the Oklahoma, dozens of feet above the surface of the water, trying to cut through to rescue trapped crew. When they cut through, water comes gushing out.

Wouldn't be unlikely that highly compressed air might come gushing out, but not water.

Far more likely. Water in the capsized wreck of the Oklahoma would not have risen above the surface of the water that the ship was in.
