*chuckle* "Allowed?" Umm...not technically...

I do remember seeing a guy run from one end of the boat to the next wearing nothing but a belt with his TLD (Thermoluminescent dosimeter) and his boondockers (boots). plain

Edit: So are we fresh out of questions. This has been fun. happy

Because I'm in a Christmas mood, Krystal. tongue

Boring answer:

Submariners use several gauges to assist in depth control. Obviously, we need to know what the ship's keel depth is. We also measure the ship's pitch, and it's overall angle. Finally, we measure depth rate--how fast we are going up or down. We use all these to adjust our control surfaces to increase/decrease depth so we are at the depth we want to be at and stable.

Terms in use: Upward depthrate, downward depthrate, and nuetral depthrate (self-explanatory)

Fun usage:

Primarily used by Souderwan (that's me) in conversation to describe your status with me on a personal level. All who irritate me have a downward depthrate. tongue

How do you celebrate holidays when you're out at see? Do you all just get drunk, or is there some special Navy way of doing it?

Only on the NUBs.

The rest is classified.

When I was in Italy, I got really, really drunk one night. I saw a lot of pink stuff.

We don’t drink alcohol underway. So we usually just grab random NUBs and stick ‘em in tight spaces. Serves as great amusement*.


*No actual NUBs were harmed in the making of this announcement. Do not attempt to stick a NUB in a tight space without direct supervision of an adult on whom you can blame the incident on.
