I agree, thanks for not including a "soundtrack" of music most viewers enjoy the real sights with sounds.

Yeah i hate it too when a good video is ruined by any music - but it is always the same crappy music which is so much worse!! 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫

I like it without music too!

@@jinaloves4153 I agree

while you're qualifying though...

It's a whole process to get your fish. They worked hard for it.

I was on Fast Attack boats, and when I got my dolphins, they were the metal type pins, not a Velcro patch. Nearly the entire crew congratulated us too, but it sure was different than this video. You see, back then, everyone who already had their dolphins got to line up and congratulate you one at a time, by tacking the dolphins on. Simply put, they would punch you in the chest right where the metal pin was attached. After one or two tacks, the steel pins would punch through the brass backing clips and stick into your chest. The next guy would pull them out and then punch them back in again. After a hundred men punched you over the next 24 hours, your chest was a bloody mess and badly bruised. But being so proud to finally earn your dolphins, you quickly healed physically and mentally. You also remembered when the next batch of sailors received their dolphins. It was an obligation to tack theirs on, and an insult to their achievement to go easy on them when doing so. I still have my original bent up set, and cherish them more than any other replacement set I ever bought. Earning your dolphins was an achievement unlike anything else. It meant you were now a trusted member of a fraternity. One that understood that you could trust your life in the hands of others, and they would trust theirs in you. You had to learn every inch of the boat, what every system did and how it operated, where every circuit breaker was, where every valve was, what it did, blindfolded, how to do every job, regardless of what your actual job was. It meant that in an emergency, you didn't have to ask what to do, you knew what to do, how to do it, and you got the job done.

DOLPHINS , RUN SILENT - RUN DEEP , THANK YOU ALL 4 YOUR SERVICE. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

@@christopherlee7334 always being yelled at with the same thing......"Get qualified NUB!!!".

I was thinking the same thing. They're incredible!

And also remember, these were designed in the late 60's and early 70's. They started building this class of ship in 1976, which means all the engineering and design work had already been finalized.

Take a look at the film on UKposts about the Russian Typhoon class submarines, it features some shots of the subs being build, it's mind boggling.

I assume that you're unaware of the pun.

Ingalls builds them in Virginia, I shipfit at the other Ingalls, and can't imagine building these things. Ships seem so easy and basic compared to these

Cody Kyser I think these machines are amazing! The amount of stuff going on...engineering awesome. But after watching it and seeing them do that same “step” to get through the tubs, I said hell naw. That is the one thing that would annoy the shit out of me out of everything lol

To a civilian like myself, it seemed a bit noisy, I thought subs were really quiet.

@@ronaldmarks5772 Yes' they are, all equipment is resiliently mounted so no noise producing objects are directly conntect to the hull making it quiet noise inside the sub isn't transferred to the hull therefore it is quite for the people trying to hear us

You can play in your mind the various scenarios of which cities you can melt with what's inside those tubes. :-)))

23 years on the boats, The last 12 on the boomers. A total accumulation of 8 years under water. The experience was indeed great. Been retired since 1978, still miss it.

thanks for your service

Salute you

This shit gave me tears no cap

Thank you for your service! I'm going in as SECF in less than a week. Looking forward to it

WOULDA, COUDA, SHOULDA. All of us that served (me, Army), wind up wishing we had stayed for twenty years and retired with half pay in our early forties. Truth is, only a small percentage of personnel reenlist and go for the golden goose. Twenty years seemed like a long time when we were in our late teens or early twenties..right?

Gotta be, SSBN's are boring as fuck to serve on to me anyway.

Video and photos are often deceiving. I'd probably avoid hitting the top of my head on some ceiling fixture my first few months there despite the fact that it's probably engineered such a way, I'd have to actually try to end up hitting my head. Need confirmation from people who served in these vessels of course. Do newbies actually walk around like retracted turtles in there?

@@mistaowickkuh6249 "Do newbies actually walk around like retracted turtles in there?" If they're tall, yeah. My first boat was a Trident and one of the guys in sonar (I was a sonar tech) was over six feet and he would still have to duck. Ohio Class (SSBN ("Trident")/SSGN) definitely has way more room than 688/688i/Seawolf/Virginia, though. Not THAT much, because most of the extra space is taken up by the missile tubes (the large orange tubes), but significantly more room.🙂

I live here too...I want a hat with the Steamboat embroidered on the side!!!!! 🤠🤠

Three words...stink, stank, stunk.

@@blaineedwards8078 and the toilets could sink the boat

@@cheese515 If you turned the wrong valve, would you get a shit shower? At least that keeps people away from you and you get more room.

@@blaineedwards8078 It was mostly a problem on German boats. Unlike what most did, the Germans decided to dump the shit straight out once you flushed. Because of the high pressure on the outside this required a complicated system. Only some of the crew knew how to operate this system, so when it was time to flush, one of these people had to be ready. At one point, late in the war, a type VII was engaging a British ship when one of the crew members, believed to be the captain, tried to flush without knowing how. He went back to his station and after a while sea water started pouring in from the heads. The submarine started flooding and they eventually abandoned it.

@@cheese515 That is cray-cray! I love the scene in, "Das Boot" when Johann, the engineer, went completely bonkers and started up the ladder in the conning tower. Do you think the captain would have actually shot him?

Ditto

@@debbob78 enjoyed that video. First thing that came to my mind was the young sailor a few years ago that took a couple of photos in the conn that were obviously for family and friends but those pics got him in deep do-do and ended his career if I recall right….seems like a lot more classified backgrounds could be in this video. I would imagine it all came down to a ship’s policy of zero pics on board. By the way did you ever run into master diver (navy) Richard Radecki (aka ragman)?

Still to this day, when I hear a ventilation fan stop, I think: "Loss of shore power. Rig for reduced electrical. Prepare to snorkel!" GTFO in '91

NAVY MAS

Please Help Me KRI NANGGALA 402

Yes!!! And more detailed descriptions! Nah, classified-shmassified. Come on, tell us!

Sounds like a game of Pong

Sounds like ESM to me.

Yep even more so I love the counter intell that it and voice garbling represents. Those of us in and retired from The Force certainly understand and appreciate it!

Nggak

They truly are. I hope they realize how appreciated they are, They are peace keepers.

that's why they get REALLY good food compared to other branches of the services. or so i hear.

We have to now cuz of covid 19

Same with me ..i ever go to winter not see the sun for half day i feel directly homesick of my tropical home town

I did 6 patrols and I can confirm it sucks.

Like going to sea in the Hilton.

@* AnimalHeadSpirit * I just watched that on Hulu. Great movie even though it's over 30 years old.

My best friend was on the USS Thomas Jefferson (SSBN 618) in the early 70s, homeported out of Rota, Spain.

Stan Adams Thank you sir! For your comment and certainly your service!

You think they take turns on her?

Do women,sleep in the same bunks as men?Was there the nerd to chance anything to acomodate women in subs?What about sjw's and feminists that get offended by everything, are they a threat to the well being inside a sub?

@theklamfyrWhite Knight pussy. Of course she will fuck around. I have buddys that serverd and they all told me the same storys. Its just reality. Get over it.

A real life Day Walker.

Now that's funny.

🤣

Hey great comment, subscribe to pewdiepie guys.

no they use all new flex seal

cheezymuffin I would hate to be the poor sap who has to go outside the sub to apply flex seal! 😄

It is a rotten shame what Obama did to the military, including putting women on submarines. Another example of reality being replaced by political correctness. I was on a fast attack in the early 70s...

Hopefully, no more OR no less than any other sub sailor.

@@kenwbrenner why would that be a problem? What submariner duties require having a penis?

@@kenwbrenner You never served military...your arrogance says it all

@@kenwbrenner Yeh stupid liberals stopping you from having an all gay orgy on your submarines

At 9:55 there is a orange curtain on the left that was a bunk we created for one our yeomans that was 6'4". There were only 8 places on board he could stand staright up. Mainly the engine room but the cone didnt hang out in nuke land that much.

YES

i counted 24 rocket tubes. thats a lot of firepower. i only carried 300 rifle, 100 pistol, and ten grenades.

i count six shotz..

Well, with each of the 24 Trident II missiles containing 8 warheads of 100-455 kiloton yields, each of which if at 455 kilotons is greater than twenty times as powerful as the highest estimates for the yield from either bomb that we dropped on Japan, a full salvo could definitely change the look of the map.

YES

It's not that traffic is heavy, there's just a ton of security involved whenever boomers are moving on the surface. They have to be very careful

amaw67 that's because they're carrying nuclear warheads with them. The government doesn't take that lightly.

amaw67 LMAO

My husband is one of those drivers 😊

You r controlling a sub with a lot of people and high explosives I'm sure if u where doing that u would look the same

Paul ST No rape vibes, and really good food.

AND freedom. They still can move around the ship freely.

Except they have gadgets and gizmos and buttons and levers that do cool things like go underwater or blow bad guys up

You obviously haven’t don’t time in jail, in jail you don’t even get toilet paper, this sub looks like edible food

read my comment dred 100% or monastery under water but ye doing time fa sure, but with inteligence...nasty rather do bird rolly (ole lag) foot on balcony & say hi PO(prison officer) how lang you do!!!! lol

To me it's a huge, daunting responsibility. The Captain is right there watching everything like a hawk.

LMAOOO

It will, otherwise why it's made.

You say it's like a lathe! It's only called a "machine" by propaganda. It's a SHIP with lots of machines on it.

B S, they don’t have enough missile for ALL over the world.
