Fellow bubblehead sent me a different link to this article and I "Binged" keywords to verify it's source and came upon your blog entry. There is no doubt we all share a unique pride in our service. I have shipmates I have known for almost 40 years that are still close friends. Retired after 29 years, Pulaski, Webster, Snook, Sculpin (sister boats of the Thresher and Scorpion), Tautog, Grayback and Proteus. Interesting background yourself and I will be contacting you about your other career in the hope that perhaps you can help me in that area. Thanks, Lynn in Vegas Hi Jack,

I served aboard two submarines, qualified on both, made 6 overseas deployements for over 4 years. Over the years I have had the occasion to reflect upon the experience; only in advanceing middle age (I am 58) have I put the experience in perspective. My immediate emotional reaction is one of gratitude, not pride. To serve in the capacity that I did was an immense privilege and honor, one I am eternally grateful to my God,Country, and Navy. I am the brother of every submariner in the world, regardless of Nationality. I am a brother of the 'phin'. Thank You, America! I read with great interest in the above article by Dr Brothers.
