That was one thing about Admiral Rickover: That man was hated by SO many ppl for his brashness and just overall being a royal pain in the ass, but he was QUITE adamant about the need for rigorous training for the sailors and attention to detail on the construction of the submarines.

The Admiral was one heck of a guy. I watched his BIO on the Bio channel (I think). He was known for no compromises.
FWIW does anybody here know anything about the Seawolf? She seems to have disappeared.
