I have been inside TK-208 when they were offering tours a few years ago. If you were in any other submarine it doesn’t even feels like you are in a submarine upon climbing in. It is more like a two star cruise liner inside although the interior is 1970s vintage with fake wood paneling and related stuff. The skipper’s quarters is actually like a large office with reception and conference room. It has a gym, a steam bath and even a swimming pool.

That’s not an Olympic pool but definitely larger than any hot tub I have ever seen.

The crew members wearing jump suits have either a number tape or name tape on the left breast of their uniform. Because of the uniform I assume that they are enlisted. Letters could be for Chief Petty Officers and numbers for enlisted, but that’s just a guess. Wonder what the numbers mean?
