NTINS:
The New London Submarine Base is actually in Groton Ct.
The U.S. Coast Guard Academy is in New London, CT, situated on the banks of the Thames River. On warm Summer nights, Coast Guard Cadets would sometimes take their dates down to secluded corners on the river bank to watch the submarine races and other nocturnal sports.
And while the young cadets were watching the submarine races, they were blissfully unaware that on the other side of the River Thames, the submarines were watching them. The periscopes were fitted with night vision optics, so someone in the duty section could track the events over in New London. And since the periscopes were connected to a close-circuit TV, everyone in the duty section could enjoy the show.
The Kollmorgan Type 10 periscope at The schoolhouse in Pearl had a clear shot of the waves barracks, I say “had” because some joker couldnt keep his yap shut
