"FUN FACT: In submarine terminology, “zero bubble” means that the bow of the submarine and the stern are level."

19-year old me driving a ballistic missile sub.

The "bubble" is the item I circled in red. If all the instrumentation is out you can still tell what the ship's angle is.

“FUN FACT: In submarine terminology, “zero bubble” means that the bow of the submarine and the stern are level.”

Good explanation. So it’s like the bubble in your standard carpentry level.

I venture to say, the sub needs to be at "zero bubble" to accurately launch torpedoes, right? So zero bubble means watch for fish being launched.....

Not to put too fine a point on it but you were steering.

The Officer of the Deck was driving.

45,918 so-called New Cases today.

Could it possibly be that the "Plan" was all along to demolish the Commie-RAT-globalist Party (aka "Pity Party") in America? No more squeaky close elections? RATs relegated to a remote island where the American Communist Party was once confined?

If so, it might just be working!

Everything is unraveling for the RATs at just the right time

President Trump is not only WINNING the election, but is starting to equate the "Socialists" with "Communists." HA! Bidens are in the DoJ crosshairs ... and CF too. The U.S. is going to disengage from China, allowing their FAKE COMMIE ECONOMY to collapse like the USSR.

(NOTE: Getting hit with a CCP bioweapon was NOT part of the Plan ... but a great leader adapts.)
