Thank you for the explanation. Submariner family way back— from the O-boats days (at least not “the Holland”, heh!).
Made a comment about CWOs on the Fleet Submarines of WWII—
Your description of COB’s role and analogous rank on a surface ship is helpful for people understanding.
The COB runs the boat. Quite a Service, the Silent Service.
Thank you!
We’re watching NewsMax on Youtube and loving the great coverage.
