I was a surface sonarman on DLG-34. Got an invite to ride the Finback (SSN-670) for a week. The sonar crew humored me and let me ping until we crossed the Hampton Roads tunnel, leaving Norfolk.

“...the Finback (SSN-670)....”

That’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Sometime around 1977 we came up from Ft Bragg, boarded her and did a few days working off the coast.

Did the same with the Greenling a couple of years later.
