Lots of Fish in here it seems.... Aco 27th En Bn(C)(A) from 04-late 08 with a year long vacation in the Ghan from 06-07. 1 year of route clearance was enough to know that a career during the endless war on terror wasn't a thing to do for this guy. Did 5 years government contracting for BRAC after the fact and am now finally settling in to a local Municipal position that is basically early retirement. Life is good.

I did secret shit under the water in places I am not allowed to talk about.

So you were a nuke too, SSN or SSBN and when were you in? I did most of my time on SSBN 645 (5 deterrent patrols/refueling overhaul) and then SSN 714. Spent a lot of times "poking holes, 6 knots to no where".

Nah, if they find you, just have Harland Williams make whale noises...

it was a pretty quiet sub, even in the old one

Subs are supposed to be quiet, they lose if they are found.....

Grendel = ex - ET1/SS Nuke 1984-1995 that was disable discharged for a shattered right ankle that happened while running independent PT (Paintball Tournament Gaffney SC in 1993 ) There are many times I wished I had fought the discharge but anyone who was in at the time they were closing bases/downsizing it was not fun to make rank. I had been up for ETC since 1991 but no billets to advance into finally made selection in early 1995 but they would not advance me due to wanting to discharge me. Nukes were not eligible for the early outs so any excuse to dump us they went for it.

I miss the Navy at times and passed up an opportunity to become an LDO in 1992 because I was an idiot and did not want to end up back in a shipyard as an O3. Should have done it I could have taken being a Nuke Officer in the Shipyard for 3-4 years.

[Flounder]

well if the torpedoes left the tubes there would be some demo work underwater.

[Tracker]

oh.. well i feel dumb, i assumed your were alluding to underwater demo kinda stuff.. oops

[Flounder]

Not a PJ thought that is a really cool job. I was a submarine electrician.
