When taking a bath do you have a submarine toy you play with or do you prefer to play with surface ships?

We take showers and they only last about two minutes. We don't have time to play. plain

This is fascinating IMO. Anyways, are there viewports along the hull of your sub? And if yes, have you ever seen strange underwater occurrences?

AJ, no viewports on military subs.

Exploratory subs like the one that did deep-sea exploration for the Titanic have a viewport.

edit:

s65horsey: It depends. We go out for a few weeks at time for exercises and the like. On mission, we can stay deep for as long as we have food. I won't say how long that is. wink

So how would one go about getting a tour of one of these hard, long, black vessels?


Stop by my house. We'd never have to leave. wink



I have some kind of disco-porn version of in-the-navy playing in my head all of a sudden... I do hope you will take all precautions to see cathy gets home safely, if not just a little sore.

I have a sub related question:

1: Of what is a submarine's hull made.

2: Given that all matter shatters and a given sonic frequency and given that sound moves so well underwater, what would be the feasibility of a sound-based weapon that can shatter sub hulls?

3: Is there a cannible contingency in the case you run out of other consumables?

No, I think part of their training is learning how to old it for weeks at a time. They are masters of the pee-pee dance.

Those things could stop anything. Do you how many times I survived poundings from multiple tanks in the same turn using those things?

Have any whales humped your sub yet? It happened to a sub that a co-worker of mine was stationed on once and so he now tells everyone that he was involved in a whale gangbang, any chance you can lay claim to being a participant in such an event?

What kind of testing does the Navy do for recruits, to make sure they don't show signs of possible claustrophobic tendencies?

Have you ever been onboard a sub where someone freaked out, while the sub was submerged?

If someone freaks they just stab them in the throat and then fire the body out the nearest torpedo tube and then tell the family that he was lost at sea.
