See this? This is a
Kobben class submarine. For reference its about the size of a WWII Type II U-Boat (yea the small one). Back in the 1980's the Royal Norwegian Navy decided to allow women on submarines. In '95 they got themselves a woman captain, Capt. Solveig Krey (pictured)
They put her on THAT!
If a women can do her job with 23 men for a prolonged patrol in a space smaller than a single wide trailer, I think we can squeeze a few in on one of our big nucs.
