    I spent over 23 Years on Submarines in my US Navy career. During that time I spent more than 17 1/2 of those years at sea away from my family. Missed a large amount of Family functions, Birthdays, Anniversaries, Births, and Deaths. Was at sea for 9/11. Submariners are a special kind of person. We rely on each other to make sure the number of dives equals the number of surfaces. Each and every crew member knows that if there is a casualty onboard, we will do everything in our power to correct it and save the boat. Would do it all over again. ETRCS(SS), USN RET.

    One observation about a sailor being on a submarine is that the sailors are working, eating, living and sleeping in the confines of a specialized machine that travels underwater. They are inside this machine for the duration of their mission and basically cut off from the rest of the world. It must take special people to handle this type of living conditions.

      Submariners either are, or become, a very special breed. Let me put it like this, if you're out to sea and a family member dies you won't know about it until you step on dry land again. There are no communications and safety protocols prevent it. I know a guy who was a submariner, the longest trip he did was 9 months. Even he admitted he became a bit weird after that. 9 months and it's essentially a different world you're coming back to, 9 months of missed news.

      Honestly, it's refreshing to see this comment. I think you'd understand better than most people here.
      Everyone thinks the hardest part is being underwater or being cramped like that. But that's nothing. Especially not compared to the daily grind.
      Even the easiest jobs I've seen on subs are ridiculous compared to most civilian jobs, but then you get to the lives of and the expectations placed on all the nuclear operators and the officers... it's not an easy life. I simultaneously love my work and hate my job.

    Cool video, good work. I lived on boats for 10 years, from old diesel electric to the most fierce warship ever laid. Was port and starboard the entire time on the last boat, sleep was not had. It was a very intense life-style to say the least. I remember walking on boxes of canned food upon leaving, all lined up in the berthing quarters along the deck. After chasing around everyone on deployment, then maybe having to do other stuff, you start picking away at those boxes of cans. As we would get out of our racks in the dark and move down the passageway, you'd find the holes where the cranks took out a box and you'd take a header off something on the way down. A lot of tough love to be had, but all in all, it was an amazing time in my life and I appreciate what I learned and who I served with. BTW, there are many different vintages, types, and even multiple countries boats represented in this video so don't take it too much to accuracy of details as it would apply to our current new builds. The LA class was the game-changer, and cold-war stopper.

      Not really. Submariners have to qualify to continue serving onboard. You have roughly 1-year to earn your qualification. If you fail, you are shipped off to the surface fleet. That being said, the qualification is comprised of every system on board, electrical & mechanical. You MUST learn and understand how every system works and is interconnected with other systems. Learning how one failed component can cause multiple problems throughout the boat. You must learn damage control technique, how the internal ventilation system is designed, everything about the emergency recovery systems, how the reactor systems work, memorize how the waters systems are designed and what modes and operations are performed by it. This isn’t just the mechanical rates, everyone on board has to have a basic knowledge of the submarines entire systems to stay and work on board. The funny part is this, those qualifications are just the “basic knowledge required”, you have to build on that knowledge to qualify higher level watch stations.

    One thing I’m going to dispel is the myth that submarines had great food ie better than the surface guys. Most skimmers and bubble heads don’t go onto the others ships so this myth persists. Near the end of my career I worked as a rider for SUBLANT being farmed out to a DESRON as a sub liaison for water space management. I rode Perry’s Burkes and Ticos. I also rode with NATO in an Italian flagship. I was surprised with the quality of the food onboard. Some were ok and some were amazing. BTW having an open bar in the mess decks on the Italian ship was a big plus.

(50 years later I still can't look at a 3 bean salad) Deployment may last 6 months, (my old boat did an 11 month deployment but only remained submerged for around 60 days at a time.) but the need to reload stores is every few months.

The video begins with a U.S. Navy submarine on the surface showing its Colors (US Flag) and then jumps to SAAB a Swedish company that designs and builds truly incredible world class submarines. Then the video jumps to the commissioning ceremony of a U.S. Navy submarine without stating that the U.S. Navy Subs are designed by General Dynamics Electric Boat Company & Huntington Ingalls Industries and are constructed by New Port News Shipbuilding, all in the US. 100% United States of America.

    I have looked everywhere to try and confirm that the Virginia-class submarines are made anywhere else other than in the USA. From Wikipedia: "The Virginia class is built through an industrial arrangement designed to maintain both GD Electric Boat and Newport News Shipbuilding, the only two U.S. shipyards capable of building nuclear-powered submarines. Under the present arrangement, the Newport News facility builds the stern, habitability, machinery spaces, torpedo room, sail, and bow, while Electric Boat builds the engine room and control room. The facilities alternate work on the reactor plant as well as the final assembly, test, outfit, and delivery." I SEE NO EVIDENCE THAT THEY ARE BUILT BY SAAB.

      This is a great question. So all the air in the submarine gets recirculated while submerged. All of the grill exhaust that you're talking about goes into the fan room and recirculates with the rest of the air. There is equipment on board that cleans the recycled air and removes the toxins and harmful gases from the air. Fresh air replaces the old stale air when the submarine comes up to snorkel or comes to the surface.
