A submariner was telling me the aluminum-based solid rocket propellant was so stable that the rocket company, Morton-Thiecol (?) has handed out ash trays made of the stuff. Also the nose cone was made specifically from Sitka Spruce. Every time a D5 pops out of the water it finds, without fail, the North Star, to gets its bearings. Despite the appearances it never gets wet, the steam used to propel the D5 also envelopes it in the water.

Morton-Thiecol
The correct spelling is Morton Thiokol. They are the principal rocket booster manufacturer for every rocket in the U.S. arsenal made in the USA. Its name is a portmanteau of the Greek words for sulfur (Θειο "theio") and glue (κολλα "kolla"), an allusion to the company's initial product.
