“I’ve read many times that, in those days, British submariners were the best in the biz.”
Read? Been there, done that. Pur submariners were the best.
Reminds me of a NATO exercise back in 72.
Have they integrated the gals on the subs? I know the US experience was that the first gal integrated onto our subs was soon discovered with the Chief of Boat who was laying more pipe than American Water Works. A scene no doubt regularly repeated in out woke sub force.
