Welcome Chiahippo to SubSim,
Well if you do leave shore duty, get a laptop and take SH4 and SH3 with you. Wish they had been around in my day. Would have made the cruise go faster............

I'm afraid I might be way to busy on my first patrol back to even think about spending any time on a virtual tour. I'll have a hell of a lot on my plate.
* Re-qual Subs (If I get another SSBN this should be no problem)
* Re-qual Radio Supervisor (May-be a little harder this time as the boat I want will have CSRR (Common Submarine Radio Room) vice IRR (Integrated Radio Room)
* Qual COW (Chief of the Watch)
* Qual Dive
* Qual Duty Chief
As you can see that's a lot to get done and I hate wasting time so I may be able to get all that done in one patrol with the only exception of Dive which will probably take 2-3 patrols for me to get done.
