Total respect for those that work inside a sub. Hats off to them. You have to be of a certain mind set. I couldn't do it.
I could if I only got the coffee all times I wanted to.
I was a Paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division, and we were treated so much better to include combat deployments.
@@Retsler54 oh you like cofee that much. I am tea guy. Coffe is like puke to me
I served on a diesel/electric World War II vintage boat from 1966-72. Watching this video was like a biplane pilot watching Top Gun!
I'll bet!
Portsmouth
The Navy now openly allows gay activity. It has been decades since I was seriously abused for wanting to be open.
Is this video AI generated?
@@myeflatley1150 nobody cares bro
Any idea when the Navy decommissioned. Its last wwii sub ?
These subs have come a long way but it takes someone special I know I would freak out being stuck inside something that is so deep under the water. Its almost like being buried alive. I am grateful for these men and women doing this its a big sacrifice and my hat is off to them!!
Indeed! I served on two surface ships, and one of my favorite ways to relax was to walk out along the main deck at night, stop and listen to the water rushing by. I know this may seem cheezy, but looking out at the horizon, you could almost feel at one with the universe. Can't do that on a sub.
@@pcbacklash_3261😮😮
I served on the USS Baltimore SSN-704 back in the late ‘80s. It was quite the experience.
Respect to these men and women.
These guys definitely have to have discipline and unity to get along and function in such a tiny space. Imagine if guys had beef, that sub would turn into a cage match.
Come on now; we talking about submarine military; they are not like soldiers or marines, way less meat heads, more nerds. Which is fine, I bet there’s never any fights.
Navy people are different in mentality.
I had a buddy who went navy when I went army; few years later when we met up. We weren’t even friends anymore, he changed very much, same with me.
We talked about our experiences and his was a lot more softer, but I definitely would not want to be in a submarine vs a fox hole. But I will say; wish I went navy. They really do get better food; he talked about Friday was steak and lobster; He definitely enjoyed it; mine was just a suck fest. And not the good kind of suck off.
My Father was a Navy man. When I was young, he took us on a tour of a Navy sub -- I'll never forget the experience, but this video gives a much better perspective of our subs. Thanks!
Brother was on SSBN-741 for five years. He loved it.
“Hot Racking” not “Hot Bunking.” I’m a retired Chief Hospital Corpsman with twenty one years in service under my belt. And yes, submariners eat like kings in a toilet paper roll. It beats the MREs and vacutainers which feed me for so many years on the Green side (i.e. U.S. Marines).
It must have been depressing dealing with all those corpses.
MREs are great. Especially the older ones that were geared towards actual Americans. Now its geared towards United nations.
I was a cook on the USS West Virginia ssbn736 gold. This brings back a lot of memories! Of course in 1998 cell phones weren't even an issue- when we were able to get a family gram it was pretty short and printed put and given to us. I see some differences with more computers being utilized in some areas on-board, but really not much else. Best food in the navy and then some!
But how could you guys workout ?? This video shows very limited options for working out. Maintain a healthy weight or lose weight is as important as eating, right?
@sieunhau1 I packed on a lot of pounds, especially as a cook. There were weights and some cardio machines - you could work out if you really wanted to.
@@rsalek damn, very “limited options” for working out. Nah I am good, joining Air force maybe better choice.
@@sieunhau1are you blind buddy , there were 2 exercise bikes free weights and ever herd off the best form off exercise calisthenics your own body weight push ups dips boxing 🥊 if you can’t lose gain or maintain weight with all this available then your pathetic or full off excuses
Can’t imagine being over 6’ tall and serving in such cramped quarters.
I have several family members that were in the Navy and Submariners were called Bubbleheads.
Be proud.
Still called that
Bugmariners in Australia bubbleheads are clearance divers.
Hospital Corpsman were called pecker checkers, boswain mates were called deck apes, shipfitters are turd chasers, siglemen are skivvy wavers and gummers mates are cannon cockers.
I could never…
Hats off to those take on such a task
I worked as a seaman. I loved it. But seeing a vessel with no portholes freaks me out 😬😨
Thank you for this incredible video, Sir!
i got a tight feeling in my stomach imagining being under the sea in this high tech tin can 😬
I was a rider on submarines and surface ships. I agree that submarines have the best food in the Navy.
Maybe best afloat but AF gallies are the best shore side. Retired Squid.⚓️🇺🇸✌🏻🍻😊
What’s the best meal?
And the Navy has better food than the Army on a troop ship
Carriers have the best food
Holy, This is one of the best videos of submarines I have found, thank you!
Also its soo crazy how tight the bunking beds are!
We rely on these brave submariners for defence. They patrol the cold dark depths of our seas as sentries.
While those in power on the ground, do everything in their power to provoke a nuclear exchange 😮
As a former Infantry Grunt…I’d trade my previous hardships for a tour on this sub any day.
Absolutely. Looks easy af
Nahh Fk that... there ain't even enough space to b*tch on one of those things😂
You aren’t smart enough to
@@patrickpittman2342yea, ok
You had your choice already
Not only are the bunks warm, so were the toilet seats!
😂😂😂
I served on HMS Revenge and HMS Renown. whats interesting to me is how similar a late1960s Polaris Boat is to a modern SSBN,. looked to me as the same layout...... I love my Submarine Brothers..... In Arduis Fidelis
I was stationed in Charleston S.C. in the early 80s on a sub-tender and I definitely remember the HMS Revenge tieing up to our ship. Took a few of your guys out to some clubs. Was you in this sub in around 81-85?
I wonder if we ever crossed paths. Served on diesels and Polaris back in the late '70s' early to mid '80s. Cheers deeps!
these are special people...................when I was in the army I went on a course in a WWII sub.............all I wanted to do was get the hell out on deck for fresh air.
One word...YIKES!
There Awesome!! Glad I was above water in my time in the Navy....
At 12:20 the guy didn't look to happy being the dining room waiter. He got the guy at the table a cup of soda and just looked like he was having a bad day. Also if there is only 6 to 8 people and they have to prepare 4 meal times (along with prep and clean up) me being in the navy years ago I know those guys are lucky to be getting 6 hours of sleep if not less.
That guy is a FSA (Food Service Attendant) or Crank from back in the day. He is a very junior guy (typically less than a few months onboard). That is exactly his job so that the guys can get their food & eat quickly. It limits the amount of people up in an already cramped place. We don't get a ton of time to eat, especially when you have to get an entire forward and aft watch team through in 30min so these guys help get drinks, refill condiments & get deserts for the guys eating and relieving. He could be having a bad day but unbeknownst to him, he is being judged by every qualified guy that comes through there. Because it is a tight knit crew and the survivability during an accident requires every person to know alot about firefighting and damage control the qualified guys are seeing how he handles doing the worst job onboard to see if he even wants to be a "Brother of the Phin"
True. I joined under the "striker" program and did my time as "mess crank" you can get a lot of hazing from the guys but it's all well intentioned.
@@tomaskren8686my nephews son graduated from Nuke school about a year ago. He wanted subs and was lucky to be assigned to the IDAHO her launch ceremony will be some time this summer. His Chief was able to get him TDY on another sub for 6-9 months. He was able to earn his Dolphins then and the sub traveled under the north or south pole can't remember which one but I guess it is a big deal for the sub crew. He is back at his base in Ct.
That was fascinating. Kudos to the submariners that is something most people could not do. Present company included. The food must be excellent . Though I saw no overweight submariners
I deployed on many different types of ships including subs. Maybe it was an anomaly, but the best chow I ever had in my 25 year career was not on a sub, but an aircraft carrier! USS America during a North Arabian Sea deployment in the early 80s. Chow was good on a boat when you first pulled out, but once you "ate your way through the boat", and were underway for a couple of months, the food got hinky. But, it was a very different USN back then.
I agree, some of the best food I've ever had has been on the aircraft carriers, but unfortunately it's a trade-off for long lines. I remember waiting an hour and a half to 2 hours on lobster/ steak night for some chow.
One reason making it feel less cramped are the camo uniforms. You can't see fellow shipmates, making spaces appear to be open and uncongested. 😉
A sub's co2 scrubber not only has to scrub carbon dioxide but flatulence from all that rich food.
A shipmate of mine was returning home to the USA from Scotland and a 2 or 3 month boat deployment. A customs officer insisted that he open his luggage. Shipmate asked if he REALLY wanted that and was told in no uncertain terms, "OPEN IT". Once open, he was then told in no uncertain terms, "CLOSE IT!" The stink of all those months was nasty!
On Russian subs they give you disposable underwear and socks to wear.@@remaguire
I'm hoping that they eat more healthy than what we saw in the video
If you mean fresh vegetables those cause even more gas and they are perishable and has to be eaten first.@@gewglesux
Russian sub crews are given disposable fatigues, underwear and socks which don't have to be washed.@@remaguire
Spent my time in the Navy on a YTB attached to a sub squadron. We spent our time putting subs alongside a tender, and getting them underway. I don’t remember ever actually going inside one.
I was a surface ship sailor and complained about the lack space and privacy. I have all due 😮respect for submariners!
Seems cozy especially with that little curtain
Naval personnel are just lucky the submarine forces attract sufficient numbers of volunteers. Because the day that stops, is the day they're going to start commandeering guys to the underwater service. Much like high risk tunnel rat duty during the Vietnam war. Luckily, volunteers carried the load!
I think submarines are viewed as something 'elite', a cut above, to a lot of 18-20 year old young men, and justifiably so. It takes a pair (including the women) to volunteer for duty like that, so I'm not particularly surprised that many volunteer. I salute them!
I never served on a sub, but I served on a rather small surface ship (an old 'tin can'), and my trick for finding privacy was to catch a nap in one of the tiny fan rooms inside the ship's main deck exterior. Even a fan room can seem quiet once you acclimate to the noise (decades later, I still need a fan or white noise machine to sleep).
I’m a old Tin can sailor too.Was a MM on a FF-1075,DD-863 and my last 5 years was on the mighty MUX DD-944.
@@Wildman706 Are you kidding me!?? I was on the "Mighty Mux" too (until it was decommissioned)! Then I moved to a cruiser, then back to Great Lakes.
I recently discovered that one of the Mullinix's sister ships is maintained as a museum at a town here in Michigan. I've definitely added visiting it to my bucket list!
I remember when the Doc Roberts was a HM1 NUB.
I am most impressed with the plumbing if that many soldiers ate that well the amount of dumps in would be astronomical 😮
It goes into a torpoodoe to be fired at the enemy, its classed as a biological weapon
Useless comment, you're quite obviously incapable to keep it clean and think others need your assinine input.
@@simoncampbell3144-- 🤣 I like the way u think soldier!!❤
@@simoncampbell3144 The torpoodoe? 🤣
@@VegasUA-camrStevethe torPEEPEEPOOPOOdoe
I can't breathe just by watching this video 🌹
I am extremely claustrophobic... I would never survive in a sub...
Gotta hand it to these sailors ! I was on a battleship and it was a cakewalk so to speak in comparison ! Hard job for good reason
Those bedrooms look absolutely miserable
I was a 19D in the Army. 3 overseas tours but the only times i ever seen the Navy was in Kuwait. Never knew exactly how it was for them. I respect it
I was also a 19D; many times I wish I joined navy.
Had a buddy went navy I went army; he always talked about how awesome it was, different ports with cute brown girls, surf and turf Friday’s.
We weren’t really friends years later cause we both changed a lot and even our lingo was different.
He was much softer; at time I found it not respectable as a military man…also nicer in personality like a nerd, and you know how 19D were toughed up leather. Pit bulls in cages poked with sticks. He was more like an indoor cat with a rich family. 😂
Years later I see how it was better, he’s married with three kids living nice house. I’ve been in out of homelessness; divorced and been to jail.
As we said in the Navy......."Well done." I was PN3, USS Fox (DLG-33) Vietnam 1968-69.
6:47 board position looks like a legitimate skilled game.
Australian here. Heard a story where a boat would be loaded up with alcohol etc. and sail out to sea off the coast of Tasmania. US submarine would surface, take the goodies from the boat and submerge. All secret 😂.
God bless these soldiers....they go through alot and deserve nothing but respect
We had a hot tub and a swimming pool on my sub!❤❤❤
the Corpsman is just a few college hrs from a P.A. degree. That’s why the NAVY treats them so well. Don’t like the Navy? Get out And make 10 times the money and home every night. However most stay for 20 yrs retire and become PAs
Food on a submarine is the best.
Thanks for sharing.
Tremendous People. And, thank you for the Great video.
I was in submarines from 76 to 80 stationed in Pearl Harbor SSBN THOMAS A EDISON. Sonar tech. Should have stayed in, I had it made. Great times
💯 many similarities in the mess hall and the bunkbeds as the penitentiary system in California. 🛏️🍽️
Can someone please tell me what the camo covers are called that they are wearing in the thumbnail shot? I searched for Dixie Cups, but I can't find these camo ones.
cAImouflage
Russian subs menu: Breakfast > Vodka / Lunch > Vodka / Dinner > Vodka. They're more economical.
Thank you men and women of the u s armed forces
for killing millions of people around the world
The living areas were called berthing compartments. Sharing bunks used to be called hot racking, the eating area was referred to as the mess decks.
I used to know a girl with a hot rack and she used to make a mess when she was eating.
God bless our service men!
So the all the us military is volunteer service these days lol
10:30 is that them rising the sub?
Kudos to those who designed it! ❤ 👍 👌
No rolling and pitching unlike other surface vessels. Thanks God
If I was Captain... I'd have to Super Troll the crew.
Maybe let the cooks in on it ahead of time, but wait until the largest meal is being consumed. Then do an Emergency Surface, blow the ballast tanks maneuver. It would be a good and mostly harmless prank... guys got to be ready 24/7 on a sub.
Really cool documentary. In case one of the crewmembers get's a contagious winter diarrhea and vomiting disease how will that work out inside the sub?
Great & greatest uncle sam, no more words.
How are the kitchens vented? How do the toilets work?
Very interesting!
Awesome video!
Very informative 👏 👌 👍
After seeing this I am glad I chose to serve in the Army.
I should have joined the Air Force...they were treated better than us.
I remember hot bunking when I was in the navy.
Great video
Amazing!❤
That food looks good they eat better than I do and I’m home.
Been there, done that back in the 1980’s…on a LA Class fast-attack boat.
Sounds like you served about the same time I did (1981-1989). I was on a 'tin-can' and a cruiser. Your fast-attack boat sounds waaay to rough and wild (and cramped) for me! 😜
@@pcbacklash_3261
Served 77-83, plankowner aboard USS BOSTON (SSN-703) it was way cool!
Do they only have a couple toilets for the crew.
They do things similar to the U-Boat crews during World War II....hot-bunking, storing provisions everywhere, no shaves, etc.
I pray God keep them safe day and night that we and their family could sleep comfortable, nuf respect
10:32 "Keep the ship safe"
I was always told Submarines were always called Boats!
Navy definitely might be adding vitamin-d doses to submariners diet
Nightmare for claustrophobic people.
Heaven for gamers.
@@palmbeach4825lmao
Это ты ещё российских субмарин не видел.
@@palmbeach4825Also paradise for people who loves being a submariner or too much paradise for thalassophoiba get it? Cause why not
That would be me. I would go insane.
All while being aboard the most sophisticated piece of machinery in the world. The range of technology is found nowhere else.
So great information
God must be with them. They are blessed to do this. Thanks you all!😍
I envy you guys!!! Thanks for your service and GOD BLESS.
I recently tried going into a MRI machine nope couldn't do it probably same on a submarine.
Claustrophobia episode!
Too many heads inside a very limited area, that is unavoidable to bump into each other whenever make a move.
God bless America. Having the good sense to look after those serving in the armed forces with excellent food.
How do they handle death on board.
Yeah; this is crazy. I think first month would be ok, but 3-4 months in; probably lose my mind.
Naval vessels do not have kitchens and sleeping spaces. Navy navy 1966-70.
I couldn't do it, much respect to those who can.
I got hungry just watching this vid.
Very good video, though I have to point out the mispronunciation of Submariner and Corpsman. It is Sub-marine-er, and Cor-man. The 'ps in the last word is silent. Aside from that, my dad served on 4 diesel/electric subs just after WW2, with both the Gato and Balao classes of boats.
6:10 damn ;P
Do they have a psychologist or some kind of counseling available? It seems like an environment that would be psychologically and emotionally very challenging, especially over the course of months of confinement.
Aggression and fights breaking out, among other issues.
Camo chefs hats lol
This is why I chose the Army when I got drafted. I decided that I would take my chances jumping out of planes that floating in a coffin!!
Spent 8 years of my life out of my 20 in the Navy underwater on boats considerably smaller than these things. Thankfully, I'm pretty short, so I could stretch out in my rack.
Is there wifi down there
No place for those with claustrophobia or those who want ' space ' , physical or otherwise. I think counselors on board , just 2 maybe , would be a very good idea.
