since my friend and i were ex-USN we were granted permission to enter the attack compartment which is dogged and chain-locked. that ladder gets steeper every year. it will always amaze me when i visit that compartment and try to visualize the attack crew at work and the lack of physical space.

there is not one soft spot in that entire submarine. when it was under attack and the crew would be jostled around from depth bombs, there is no way in hell that most of the crew would not be bruised and battered. hell, i was bruised and battered just walking through the GD boat.

Yes definitely a unique and unforgiving environment, could see myself if trying to run through to battle stations etc and hitting the knee knockers lol. The sonar was not in the conning tower?
