"Submarine life is stressful. I was there in Norfolk for 1986 to 1990. It was hard for us not to shoot our Senior Chief but we were adults."
I don't know how the Submariners do it! Many more years ago that I like to remember, I went on a "Dependants" cruise shortly after the commissioning of the Mariano G. Vallejo, a nuclear sub homeported in Vallejo, CA. I was stir crazy by the end of the 12 hr. tour, and was amazed that guys could live on them for months at a time!!
I read many books (I wish I had that time now) and planned my future.
