      Wish I'd applied during my service. Spent 20 years as a skimmer. I think showing people around whilst they are in basic training might help recruit submariners and eliminate any concerns they may have.

      @@Vodaph0ne Wrong, in the Royal Navy there are "Boats" and Targets, submarines have always been boats for at least the last 80 years and from 1953 I know as I spent a day in a boat at sea in the Med, the boat was HMS Trenchant a T Class sub. I was 10 years old and my brother who was 13 went the day before me. Trenchant was tied up along side HMS Forth in Malta at the time and our father was CPO on the boat. 😀
