Sounds like a origination very similar to our SUBVETS in the US and I'm not surprised to hear of it. We (submariners) are a very close knit military community unlike other members of the armed forces.
On the subject of Scorpion I will agree with my Russian counterparts, the Soviets didn't sink her. What did sink her was a battery explosion.
