The Love Boat.
I am sure the crew is being indoctrinated in DEI and Wokiness, but don’t know how to launch a torpedo.
Actually the last one was the oft-ignored Silent Gen. Except for Biden and Trump, we never had any as Pres and frankly they still loved America. The so-called Greatest raised the Worst Gen with Dr. Spock.
Sorry, off my soapbox.
In time, the crew will be fighting each other.
Name one adversary of the USA that is doing anything close to this.
It’s going to really suck when their cycles start to synchronize.
only half the compliment of torpedoes as the old submarine. the other half are targets.
The Naval Academy, Air Force Academy and West Point have turned out more than 15 years of ultra liberal officers.
The enlisted are 2/3’s liberal. There is no going back.
“The USS Raging Queen, with Captain Ned at the helm.”
This is a manly ship, with manly men.
WRONG
We’re a bunch of morons.
cucks or kooks? you decide.
The Conservatives are refusing to enlist. If Harris wins, it may be the time to "go galt" although I think it is already happening now.
Does Planned Parenthood run the Sick Bay?
“They did a study back then about putting women on submarines but decided it was a bad idea because the wives and girlfriends wouldn’t stand for it.”
*************
The strains on personal relationships in the Navy are hard enough without adding further tensions. It seems that the mission has become secondary to social engineering goals.
BTW thank you for your service. I knew a lot of people who made similar sacrifices and have immense respect for them.

In such close quarters, that would seem inevitable. Requests for “dates” will be turned down, leading to bitterness. Love triangles will develop. Etc.
But at least the diversity box has been checked off. Mission readiness, who cares about that? (No one cares, not until it’s too late.)
Then the mean girl packs will form up.
People are not gender neutral.
Also how many rapes.
Wait til the jealousies start and men will be wrestling, women will be cat fighting. I hope they have a big medical unit.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the sub runs into something due to the distractions.
Subs are a psychological laboratory and most of us would not be able to serve on them because our personalities would not blend in with the claustrophobic intimacy that requires certain mental and personality traits to make the relationships bearable and tolerable, traits that are not universal by any means.
Submariners are a type, most of them can seem a little weird and self-contained to a less restrained and more brash type.
I’ve been told that a crew can find fault with a guy and once it starts it can snow ball where these all bright guys with few distractions and no space to get away from each other keep drilling in on the individual, and drilling, and drilling, until it can be so bad that there have been times a crew member has to be sent away, not everyone can fit in.
Lot’s of females in that mix?
Not only the sex and male competition, and bristling testosterone, but the female traits of how they manipulate personalities as part of the female nature, play off males to move forward, the natural female affinity for drama and especially drama and manipulation within relationships, and their natural competitiveness of winning relationships within groups.
I think submarine duty is going to become more difficult and less appealing, a little part of the submariner type might be that in general they tend to nerdiness and like the isolation and familiarity of their boat’s crews in its own little world, and this won’t help that.
This is the captain find out what that buzzing noise is and stop it were under sonar.
