As a former infantry Marine, submariners have nothing but my respect.
That's major
Thank you, we also respect your service and dedication 😎👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My son is an Officer on the USS Pennsylvania. We are super proud of what this young man has accomplished and will continue to accomplish!
Semper Fortis!!!!
Give him my thanks!
Tell him real Americans are also proud of him.
Next time you see him, hug your son for me.
Nice. I got sent on a road job from electric boat to go to Kings Bay Georgia to help repair the Pennsylvania. It got hit by a rogue wave and had some flooding issues. This was in the early 90s. Cheeeeerrrrs 🥂
This plank owner wishes him well-----------------------
I served on land, but I have nothing but the highest respect for submariners - truly a breed apart.
It’s not for me either. My oldest brother was a Chief as a Sonarman(STC) on fast attacks and my brother-in-law was the same on boomers. They both enlisted in 1962. Myself, I worked on the avionics used to find submarines from the air. I just did one enlistment 71-75. I met up with my brother at an overseas base and we had a 2am steak and eggs on the sub after drinking a few beers out on the town.
I worked at EB right after I got out.

It definitely takes a different breed to serve on a Submarine. Underwater for long periods, knowing that an accident can cost you your life. Total trust in your sea mates an Captain. An the Claustrophobic environment. Hats off to these men an women.
Women don't belong there.
Women beIong nowhere near combat by design. Combat is hard enough on men but is utterly destructive of the kindness, compassion and generosity of women, of their femininity. Men having women fight for them is cowardly.
That's not to say there's no place for women in the military. There's alI kinds of support roles for them.
Thank you,
It is amazing to work with amazing crews in the submarine service.
My six years on the USS Los Angeles SSN688 were very rewarding.
All crews are volunteers and go thorough difficult trainman’s qualifications.
These sub crews are the best in the world!🇺🇸😎
Yeah, not being able to see the sun for long periods of time, they would have to put me in a straight jacket.
Great people
I served aboard two Submarines USS STONEWALL JACKSON SSBN 634 and USS WEST VIRGINIA SSBN 736, I wouldn’t change those experiences for all the money in the world. Absolutely the greatest Navy in the world. RUN SILENT RUN DEEP.
God bless all the brave men and women who selflessly keep our country safe and secure at all costs! Thank you so very much.😊😊😊
I'm a Retired USAF Colonel, originally a Fighter Pilot. I hate interservice rivalry and have a great respect for the Navy and other Branches. But For those who not only go down to the Sea in ships but underneath the sea I withhold the greatest respect. These Men and Women are better than me in all respects. The russians and the chinese have no match for the US Navy. And they know it.
Thank you Sir. Former TMC (SS) Submariner and I thank you for your service.
Thank you Sir 07, I was in the US Navy for 8 years as an internal communications electrician on 2 different ships, the USS Peterson DD 969 and the USS Carter Hall LSD50. Currently in the process of joining the military sealift command as an electronics tech. I hope young people or even prior coast guard sailors consider joining Military sealift command due to their service and qualifications are extremely relevant with MSC.
Well that's a matter of opinion. Before it kicks off, then we can brag but until then better respect our potential enemies & know they are patriots too & will be thinking the same.

I'm a Navy veteran and was in the Seabees and I have a great respect for all services. I would love to tour a Sub
A beautiful clip of the most powerful country and army in the world. I am an Arab American and very proud
Далеко не самая могущественная
@@submariner1448 and Russia is ?
Working on these incredible machines, and communicating with the brave men and women who operate them, gives me the push to do my best work. They will help you in anyway you need, point you in the right direction, and help you repair their boat with quality work.
Much respect for The Silent Service 👍
God bless the sailors and keep them safe! Thank them all for their service;)
We all Thank You Mary.
Amen, I pray for those who put out to sea...knowing that the sea floor is littered with ships. I pray for the safety of all, military, merchants and fishermen. We so appreciate what they do. I pray for calm seas and good fortune...🌹
Thank you
You sailors are a special breed of warriors
Excellent presentation. Thanks to all the service members for helping keep this nation safe.May peace be with you ❤
As a Submariner myself this isn't a bad video. Some inaccuracies, but interesting for the nonquals out there. Submarines once!! Submarines twice!!..........IYKYK
Wholly jumping Jesus Christ. We go up and we go down......
As long as the ups equal the downs ...
@@markbilsborough4150 We don't even fuck around!
Holy jumpen Jesus Christ. We go up. We go down. We don't even f...k around auga auga dive dive. Subs 1974-1994 all fast attacks
It’s been 30 years since Ive been on a submarine. I miss it everyday.
Yep me too!!!!
Das Boot brought me here. ⚓️
To all the hard working crew of US new Mexico keep up the good work 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
I never saw how thick the ice was until I saw them pickaxes. Much respect to the silent services.❤
Old school submariner here, I recall a time where we couldn’t even talk about life in the service. Times have changed
Retired submariner here..... what the hell is a "submarine size steering wheel?" lol. Also, submarine replenishment at sea is NOT conducted on a regular basis. That type of operation is very dangerous and while it is conducted for important situations like emergency personnel transfer or equipment/supplies it is not routine conducted. That reading books aloud was a dolphin pinning ceremony and important time honored tradition and vital part of the Submariners world. The sailor was reading an section of a previous submariners experience that could have been from a battle during WWII or when a boat experienced some hardship or another notable event that was chosen by the sailor or for the sailor getting pinned. Submariners don't generally pass the time by sitting around and read out loud to each other. lol. Not a bad video just some unnecessary fluff and minor issues. Overall a decent view of the Silent Service ( was Silent Service even mentioned?) God Bless our military.
I have to disagree. The video was poorly researched and had many glaring inaccuracies. Steering wheel? What the actual F#@k. The best I could say is "mediocre".
I was on a Boomer and we would NEVER come to the surface for anything short of an emergency.
Also, I don't remember having to read anything when I got my dolphins.
Yes the Silent Service was mentioned.
Better off watching the video without the sound and the part about max 10 hours on their feet or the nuclear torpedo loading and the ventilation valve being a steering wheel just made me laugh. But the surfacing part just depends on your mission and that also depends of the class of sub so some missions will have you surface daily for weeks and others you won’t surface for over a month. The video isn’t accurate by any means but it’s cool to see I guess.
yeah, the steering wheel thing really set me off, but she said it really nicely ;-) No reading anything aloud when I got my dolphins, just a handshake fromthe old man and a polaroid camera snapshot Lafayette SSBN 616 Blue, was my qual boat. Also plankowner on Billfish SSN 676. Helicopter replenishment at sea had to have been a training exercise for the cameras...not practical or safe for anything more than one or two bundles of stuff, had to be extremely high value
The Osprey isn't a helicopter. The narration needed an editor with military experience to catch the errors, but overall it was interesting.
I noticed in the N. Pole football scene (5:08), she referred to the Sea Wolf crew as "soldiers." That's one way to irritate a sailor.
So Awesome
They're Sailors not Soldiers
I served on a ballistic missile sub in the mid 70s. Loved it!
10:56 That's a valve handwheel, not a "Submarine sized steering wheel". I recognize that even though leaving the submarine service in 1984.
Yeah the script was full of little nonsense like that. Overall the video was good, but they tried to make the script cute or something.
Damn NQP'S.
There was a lot wrong with the video. A little research would have made a HUGE difference.
Omg the food had me drooling 😮
I really wanted to see the captains state room
Not really as nice as you'd think. The XO has it better
Not impressive
A 4 billion dollar submarine traveling at full speed becomes a 4 billion dollar target! Subs normally travel slower to remain SILENT, hence the term " SILENT SERVICE"!
Thank God their on patrol!
Happy Thanksgiving 2023🇺🇸🦃🕋
Much respect for submariners but the Navy couldn't pay me enough to be on one.
Very cool video! I'd love to see more about those resupply missions and more about the nuclear part of the sub!
This what Stockton Rush thought he had.
USS New Mexico, I live in Santa Fe this is so cool.
Very Nice Submarine Us 💯💥
Godspeed to the submariners
Very simplistic piece .
The Navy has the best chow of all the services!
Se tutti i soldi per le armi spesi in tutta la terra fossero spesi per la pace e contro la fame saremo tutti più felici.
Submarines once...
Submarines twice
Holy Jumping
Who wrote this script? Very confusing syntax!
Learn how to pronounce ‘submariners’, for the love of Poseidon!
She's correct in the way she pronounced "sub ma reen er" - it's NOT "sub mare in er"...
@@danielodwyer3520 It is in the U.K. No argument that "sub-mar-EE-ner" is the American pronunciation, but the British pronunciation is, in fact, "sub-MAIR-in-er."
The fact that the impossibly complicated systems to create a submersible date back to the 1910's is amazing. The complexity of manufacturing such a craft by WW1 is near impossible to understand. Even today, the submarine ids probably the most complex vessel ever made.
Respect. Great Video, Thank you!
I toured USS Louisville SSN 724 while in port Bahrain in 1993. Would liked to have gone underway with her for a few days to experience the feeling of being under water...
I rode her from Pearl to Maui with my son as Reactor Operator and son-in-law as Navigator; daughter rode her back to Pearl. I'm retired Navy, initially an AT in the first F-14 squadron, then CEC officer. I have tremendous respect for our submariners. Son-in-law's last tour was XO on a boomer; selected for command and now flying on Nightwatch with Stratcom. Just noticed it's about to be 7:24.
It is quite the experience:))
My longest time deployed was six months, with 95-110 days under on patrol at a time.
It’s sub Marin ers
Uss pittsburgh ssn 720!
I was on 719. The 2 different of the class
@@michaelreed628 sister ship!
America LAND OF THE FREE!!
They are not soldiers, they are sailors.
As a 20-year submariner I was never a sailor. I was a submariner
Thanks
Wearing a mask in a submarine makes about as much sense as having a screen door on one.
As a 20-year submariner from 1974 to 1994, I used to sleep with my EAB mask right next to my pillow. You want one when there's a fire 🔥 you have 3 minutes then everything turns black. If you can't find the mask or a manifold, you're done😢 thank you for your response
So they are so huge
❤ Fascinating 🤗
viva USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
"Submariners are always at risk for attack." I'm sure that is the mind-set for the crew but in reality these days it is probably not the case. I hope so. Carry on submariners!
Beautiful boat. Thank God for our military and God bless all who've served and those who serve today. 🇺🇸🌎🙏
Best times, blue nose and having a open small arms locker for my watch.
God bless all our armed forces!
at the end there. i highly doubt a hurricane would cause any harm to a submarine. hurricanes and even tsunamis have completely 0 effect when you are underwater.
USS Seawolf is now a history
Not after seeing Das Boot -
We need SSGNs, lots and lots of SSGNs just in case Russia, China or someone else acts up. Each sub an fire about 100 conventionally armed Tomahawk missile at once thrn return to port for a reload.
Nukes are a lot better deterrent than tomahawks
@@jameson6152 who the hell is talking deterrence. I sure am not. If you build a weapon sooner or later you are going to need to use it. Maybe some day someone decides to nuke upUSA maybe Russia maybe China maybe NoKo maybe Iran who knows. I would rather be able to take out (example) Irans military capability WITHOUT nukes rather than use them. Two, three maybe four SSBNs off the coast of Iran and it’s over a hour later. China would take DOZENS of SSBNs
We have 4 SSGN's currently. USS Ohio, USS Micjigan, USS Florida and USS Georgia. They each carry 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles. The Tomahawk can also be loaded with a small nuclear warhead, but generally they are fitted with a conventual explosive warhead. While not the city and country destroyer of the Titan II SLBM, the shear amount of cruise missiles carried on a SSGN is also a big threat. And one that is more likely to be used first in the case of an armed conflict.
But as was stated in the video, more than half of the US nuclear stockpile is on the remaining 16 SSBNs.
I imagine that as the Columbia class SSBNs come on line that some Ohio class subs will get their Titan II's removed and be fitted with Tomahawks and turned into more SSGNs.
As they call the SSGN, "The Admirals new toy!" Its a truly scary boat!
@@ChasWG I don’t think the Tomahawk can be fitted with a nuke BECAUSE IT IS NOT ALLOWED UNDER THE INF TREATY but only due to the treaty. It was called a BGM-109A prior to the INF treaty. Also the GLCM launcher was trashed because of INF. My fav Tomahawk is the BGM-109D.
What I want is not 4 SSGNs but DOZENS and about 6 to 12 SSBNs. Think about a dozen SSGNs off the coast of China all launching BGM-109C and BGM-109D all at the same time. Oh would the seas boil during that launch.
Think about 2 SSGNs all launching against Iran after their next terrorist attack. End of their military in 0.01 seconds
Subs are our only hope if fighting breaks out around Taiwan.
The World's Deadliest Killing Machine..😎
There is only one country that thinks 4 billion is a bargin; Australia.
My brother in Christ, you're forgetting about the Canadians. $60bn for 8-12 non-nuclear subs
I'm writing a novel with a huge navy ship. I have some questions about said type of ship and other things and actions involved (within the plot), if anyone's interested in discussing.
2:13 insane that this is happening deep beneath the water, anywhere in the world
Heroes all !! Bless their hearts !!
I've always been, am now and will always be..proud to be an American!
Hey. I was wondering wondering ??? The orca is the Apex predator of the ocean do they approach or wondering what is this. ?? Just a thought???
The commentary could be improved -- 9:00 : "Historically, fire drills have had the most devastating effect aboard nuclear submarines " .. several other odd turns of phrase and logic. Otherwise, great video
I still don't know how they avoid bumping into things ,,,😮
They use their ears to '' see''
They weren't reading that book out loud for fun, bro earned his fish
05:10 Soldiers??
It's Joint Base PearlHarbor-Hickam, not Hickman.
I wanna go fishing off the bow in the Bahamas 🤠🤟
Military deserves the best food!!
How many Drag Queens can you fit in there?
Is this life claustrophobic

Thank you for sharing
🇺🇸❤
RealIy admire submariners. Dunno how they do it. Sewerpipe Sailor's. Month after month underway underwater. No natural environmentaI exposure (except TV periscope images around the boat). Jail. Dunno how they do it. Vital mission tho.
I was on skimmers. USCG, AMO, MSC.
I read a lot of books. I also spent some off watch time qualifying for the boat and my watch station. I was asked once " what happens, in detail, when that fuse blows and no one does anything about it ?" There is also routine checks and maintenance. Sleep ???
Submarines are fascinating. I find it totally incredible that a big ship like that can just completely submerge. That’s amazing! Has anyone read the book Blind Man’s Bluff? It’s about the history of the US submarine fleet, and it is a must read!
I guess their actual work is eat sleep and repeat😅
No one ever mentions the INEL in Idaho, nor do they ever report on Lake Coeur d'alene where submariners are trained and prototypes are tested. Why not?
Boring top-secret stuff I guess
Probably due to the top secret nature of the work
Hickam not Hickman
Errata: @5:38... Peal Harbor HickMan ? no Hickam. and again @14:26
Hickam, not 'Hickman'
Are there any Chinese versions of this? NO NEvet. Ha. We need a non political submarine cook off. Just
A good show of cooking from the submariners of the world. No political or national
A cultural presentation of the the best international " sub " food. Thanks for sharing. Let'sake a show of peace submarine atomic submarines!
at 10:03, note, wrong sized wrench
Wrong sized set spanner 🔧
Dang yall got story time?
It’s Hickham, not Hickman!
I’m a retired military guy. I’m amazed how hard we try to defend western capitalism. Meanwhile the global rate of bio diversity extinction increases exponentially. Maybe we need to re evaluate our goals … amen 🙏
