    Pilots of the Pacific Fleet ... fulfilled the search for a submarine off the coast of Kamchatka . I don’t understand something what Does the Pacific have other shores? I suggest - the ocean is located between the continents of Eurasia and Australia in the west, North and South America in the east. Off the coast of Kamchatka, you can work out last. Yes
