Gimme my luxury yacht!

Sorry but I had to post this here too...

I just cant wait for my luxury yacht! Er, I mean Gato boat! I have been reading the Fleet Type Submarine manual (url: http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/ ) and from what I have gathered the US Navy is where its at as far as a submariner is concerned! All this time I have been spending in the Kreigsmarine sweating below decks while in the US Navy I could have just turned on the air conditioning! Check it out: http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/app...es/figa-11.htm They even had central air distrubution just like a modern house: http://www.maritime.org/fleetsub/ref...t/fig18-01.htm

And to really rub it in they also have a refrigerator and an ice cream machine: http://maritime.org/fleetsub/refrig/chap7.htm#fig7-23

And for all you Kaleuns out there the Captian of a US sub not only has his own bunk, but also a cabin with a door. No flimsy curtains there!

Man oh man, if the average ubootman knew about this there would have been mass mutiny for sure! :rotfl:
