Then you will meet some of the North Carolina's namesake sailors serving abord the SSN-777. Then we dock here in Wilmington for the final step in preparing to serve our country, Commissioning. So, lets climb aboard and see the USS North Carolina.

    I am a cold war veteran submariner, last of the Polaris Missile Tech's off the Robert E. Lee SSBN 601. My Father was Pharmacist Mate /Corpsmen on the BB-55 during most of the war and landed with the Marines on at least one occasion. His father, my Grandfather was a Ships Carpenter USN 1917.
    I am the 3rd generation, L. Badkin to serve our great country in the United States Navy spanning over a 100 years of family support to the nations freedom, amen. Thanks Shipmates!

    My dad was from North Carolina. I remember going aboard the battleship North Carolina when I was a kid. I later joined the Navy and served aboard a Sturgeon class fast attack submarine. Now a generation later, SSN-777 carries on the highest traditions of the Navy and service to our country.

    Very fitting to have the USS North Carolina named sub when the area off the coast is called the Graveyard of the Atlantic. #s very 2000-5000 sunk ships and the USS North Carolina battleship “Showboat” is a beautiful sight. My grandfather lived close to Wilmington at the coast and he was a ww2 vet. He first took me to the battleship in the early 80s. And I’ve been going since

    I particularly liked where a small piece of the old USS North Carolina was 'donated' to the new vessel to continue the service of those veterans into a new era. From what I can make out it was a few deck-boards but what significance! Those deck-boards resounded to sailor's boots during WW2 and now resound to the next generation's boots. I also like the primary order, "Man our ship and bring her to life". I'm a Brit and know little of US maritime traditions but those words seem very poignant and appropriate. Good luck to 777 and all who sail in her.

    I served aboard two US Navy Knox Class Frigates during the Cold War as a Sonar Technician. These surface vessels were designed to detect and track Soviet submarines (Anti-Submarine Warfare) that may threaten the Fleet or mainland cities in the US and those of it's allies. Modern US subs have always been much stealthier (and harder to detect) than the Russian subs. We 'accidentally' found a contact with our towed array sonar (TASS) on an exercise in the Atlantic. The C.O. and Weapons Division Officer looked at the data, then confiscated our recorded frequency chart. We were told not to discuss the 'incident', and that we never heard or saw anything. I believe we may have detected one of our own. To this day, I know that one of the most dangerous jobs in the Navy is being on the crew of a submarine. They deserve our respect and gratitude.

    Over the 3 years of his command...literally 90% of the crew left the Navy when their enlistment was up...the other 10% transferred to a new command.
    2 officers had to leave for mental stress....
    What a serious waste of great talent...I worked with some of the most excellent professionals in my life.... And we all left...ughh!

    I was shocked to hear it said that this boat was as quiet at flank speed as we used to be a 5 knots. At five knots a 688 is practically a hole in the water. If they are that quiet, I pity anyone who ever tries to take them on. Just the advantage of being able to maneuver at speed to get into good firing position is huge. I'll bet they are rewriting the book on tactical maneuvering with these.

      588s were the old Skipjack class, weren't they? Pretty tight quarters in those compared to the 688s which we hardly spacious. Despite that, I would take a fast attack over a boomer any day. Despite my friends who served on the big Tridents bragging about how roomy they are, I would have been bored to death.

      I often go tour the USS Silversides - a WW II Gato class submarine, and compare that to the Los Angeles class subs I knew in the 1980s and that difference is huge. I'm betting these are even nicer. If you are ever around Muskegon, Michigan a stop at the Silversides Museum is worth the time.

      Most of us have seen it. It is the most realistic movie about life on a submarine. Now for the mental state of bubbleheads watch Down Periscope. You might think it is a comedy but I can say that the sense of humor (sick) is true.
      As far as space, the early nuke subs were not much bigger than the diesel boats. We thought the Ohio class boats were floating Hiltons. They still are.
      Now they have "pilots"? Wow. I stood many hours of watch as throttleman.

      all of the electronics are housed inside the pressure hull with the crew, there are hydrophones mounted externally that they listen to other ships with, and transducers that make the active sonar "pings" like in movies, however that is rarely used because it gives away your location....most of the time they just try to be as quiet as possible and listen

    An executive officer who’s been on 2 previous submarines calls them ships? And the next sailor they interviewed, are us sailors not taught that they’re boats not ships, a very important fact for submariners from what I’ve heard

    • @robertwalker799
      @robertwalker799 4 роки тому +2

      Technically speaking, subs ARE ships nowadays due to their size.
      The first submarines were called boats because they were small enough to be hoisted aboard a larger vessel.
      We still refer to them as boats today as an acknowledgement of heritage. (Tradition).
