This is the Sub I am going up on Sunday to work on for 2 weeks. Of course, you can't see anything aft. Also, the Fire Control and Sonar Consoles are much better than those old ones.

SmokinTep, very nice. Same for the link. Anyone in the Silent Service gets my salute. S!

I missed out on a chance to go a a 3 day cruise out of Groton. My ex son-in-law was on a sub and later told me he could take a family member out. But that was back before 911, I don't imagine it's possible amymore. Would have been a great experience.

CV-707 do you know you are going against copyrights when using my words for your sig.

I will accept all cash in sealed envelopes, or in my doggy swiss bank account

The link takes you to a page with a picture of the head. Then there is a paragraph talking about the head. So I figure SmokinTep must be working in the head. S#!tty job but someone has to do it.

I work for the Govt. out of Norfolk Naval Base. I oversee a crew of Civilians who go onboard for 2 weeks and assess various systems/equipment and repair problems to ensure she is ready for deployment.
