How are her brothers not going to allow that to happen? It happens to almost everybody at least once. I lived on the Patrick Henry from 68 to 73 and one of the most fun things to do was watch for the new guy to flush while blowing tanks. You have to bend over the bowl to reach the handle, whoosh! I know it shouldn’t be so comical but it really was.

For those who don’t know what I’m talking about, when you are underwater you have to save everything that goes down the drain in a tank. On occasion the boat comes up to a shallow depth, usually to get a satellite fix, when that happens the external pressure is greatly reduced so it doesn’t take as much air to blow the tanks to sea. When the tanks are blown to sea it takes time, more than a few minutes. The person who is doing that job hangs signs in the head saying that the shitters are being blown but there is always someone who gets out of bed to take a leak or a dump and ignores the sign. It is ok to do this as long as you don’t flush while the tank is pressurized. It doesn’t take much pressure to spray a lot of crap in your face. After you clean yourself then you get to clean up the area you just sprayed with $#It, you wake up and learn not to do it again.
