There were many comments about the "Snark infested waters" off Cape Canaveral back in the early '60s.

Right. Back in the mid-50s I was stationed at Wright-Patterson, and was working on the guidance system for the Rascal air-launched missile. Other guys in the same office were working on the Snark guidance system. Quite a few Snarks simply spashed in the water right off Canaveral. Lots of jokes about "Snark infested waters."
