Yup,that's the ticket.Three quarters of the women are pregnant 2 months into a six month cruise.

(Do subs even *do* 6 month cruises?)

It depends. If you are on a crappy boat you stay out until something breaks. If you are on a good boat you cover your missions and the missions of the boats that broke. I was at sea 220 days one year.

REAL submarines do. And even if they're not underway the whole time (typically about 75-80 percent), if one gets preggo, they don't go underway. Think one unexpected loss in a division of 5-6 people doesn't hurt? I got an augment taken away from me one Westpac (and the schools I would have attended along with it) because someone broke his arm. That was just six weeks. Now what do you do if she's pregnant for nine MONTHS?
