- This 1978 Navy film, produced on behalf of the Chief of Naval Operations, presents an in-depth look at the life of a submariner, from missile and torpedo exercises, to mess and recreation. It explains in great detail the difference between fast attack submarines and ballistic missile submarines. Source: Naval History and Heritage Command, Photographic Section, UM0-40.
As a member of the 627 Blue Crew from 1970 thru 1977 this brings back fond memories of SSBN life and the great crews we had. Most memorable were the actual launches we did during the two DASO operations I was on board for. In closing, there is also the great reunions of our families, like a brand new honeymoon with each port return!
I was on the Blue crew, one patrol, in 91......her last patrol
I was a Bluie 1985-1987. It does bring back memories.
Was a good time to be in the Service, mid 1970s to mid 1990s.
That's my daddy who launches the torpedo (exercise), CDR Norm Cook (RET)
cool...to be a Submariner was a honor and a rigid selection process to be accepted...that means your Dad was a special and talented person..i know you are proud...
I remember this! Funny how things seem to show up on TH-cam, when you least expect them. Go Navy. It's not just a job, it's an adventure.
hahahahahahahahahahaha
Wow. That was quite a trip down memory lane! USS Stonewall Jackson (SSBN634)(GOLD) 1982-1985
I notice the fresh salad, and ice cream. Must of been the first 3-4 days of the run, after that its frozen, canned veggies, and plastic cow
On my SSNs we didn't even have three days worth of fresh produce - converted Chill Box to Freezer/ Reefer for more steaks and other stuff.

@@SaltiDawg2008 And you guys always thought you were so special . . .
Most TV documentaries about submarine life are recorded dockside.
Been there, done that. Assigned to 616 in '78, 3 DPs out of site 1 & 1 out of King's Bay, then went to a Thresher (oops, Permit) class fast boat. I have rate training manuals that still smell like boat if you open them & stick your face in. I think I recognized 2 of the guys in the film, but it's been over 40 years so who can tell for sure.
MT on the Stonewall Jackson Gold SSBN 634 from 81-88 and the Mariano G Vallejo SSBN 658 91-92. Brings back many found memories.
I hated loading torpedoes in the driving rain -- but like everything else on the Boats, you and suck it up and do it anyway like everyone else.
Who the heck ever had an umbrella topside during a missile load? Someone must have made an FTB help load missiles.
hahahahaha
Spoken like a jealous MT 😉
God bless those who defend the deep.
The Captain personally screened all family grams (famgrams) for anything that could cause a problem for the sailor. Such as a "Dear John", or mom just committed suicide, etc. I know lots of sailors came home to an empty house. The wife was gone and the place was rented to someone else completely. Marriage was not the smartest thing to do.
And that's the way it was. For really real.
I was in "A"gang on the gee-dubb 598. We covered a lot of gear throughout the boat with only a handful of guys. Sonar on the other hand had a 4 watch schedule
Guess you had your job and they had theirs.
Damn refits sucked! As an engineer we couldn't wait to get underway! Made 8 patrols out of Holy Loch
It's all gone except Groton ... ships, submarines and the bases.
:(
I was in Charleston
Hi Steve!!!
Is the XO at 7:58 Drake "Iced Tea" Donahue?
Someone Please tell me it's not True......The Tower and Barracks torn down??? Without the tower how a sailor find his way back to a boat.
hahahahaha
They didnt always tell us it was a drill until the very end of the evolution. Just the way.
I just hope that Charles Plotz is fictitious person, as there is a brief moment where his ID is show with his SSN. Perhaps the uploader could censor this?
The back round music is right from a 70's porn video.
At 26:18 is that guy Joe Namath's brother ????? LOL
music sounds like my dads old movies
1970s porn music starts at 1627.
What could be more appropriate . . .
We all had beards.
SODA IN A TIN CAN(.MAIN ENGINES OFFICER)MAC , YOU GOTTA GET A HAIR CUT.(ME)OKKKK. THE OLD DAYS ARE GONE.
Yea but the new are still doing their jobs, show some respect
@@globaladdict I DID NOT WRITE THAT ,,,,THE NAZI'S IN SALT LAKE DID... 3MMR JFK-67 OVER 40 YEARS AGO... THEY KILLED SHARON TATE AND SHE DID NOT KNOW THEM...
They allowed people to grow bears and hairs in the Navy, fuck that!
What are you doing watching a flick? Get qualified nub!
Dumbass, do you know how complicated it is to flush water waste jn a sub? They're fucking stuck underwater for 2 months, it's a minor consolation
Hell, back then there were no such thing as PT. The only time there was , was during a pub crawl in Dunoon. We had a sonar chief as big as Baloo the bear. He slipped over the side tying up. They used the brow crane to pull him out. And when he came through the hatch, it would change the ventilation flow. Beards, making homemade wine for halfway night, smoking on board. Stealing the XO's door. 4 knots to nowear. Getting caught in fishing nets while in the North Sea. And the Dunoon Dollies. Fresh fish and chips, and warm bear. And don't forget the F____book turnover. What a time to be a boomer fag. MMC/SS AGANG RET. 1974 TO 1997.
The music - sucks so bad!! Totally inappropriate. Imagine launching an SLBM thermonuclear weapon with this kind of music in the background. Stupid beyond belief.
Should have played Ride of The Valkyries, eh?
It's the porno music yr dad put on to cover the sounds of banging ur mom, uts def appropriate
