I spent over 23 Years on Submarines in my US Navy career. During that time I spent more than 17 1/2 of those years at sea away from my family. Missed a large amount of Family functions, Birthdays, Anniversaries, Births, and Deaths. Was at sea for 9/11. Submariners are a special kind of person. We rely on each other to make sure the number of dives equals the number of surfaces. Each and every crew member knows that if there is a casualty onboard, we will do everything in our power to correct it and save the boat. Would do it all over again. ETRCS(SS), USN RET.
Thanks Senior Chief. Submarines once....
I had to look up ETR. Thanx for the family grams. MMCS/SS Nuke Retired. Have you ever broached the sub? God Bless Submariners
Respect
@@ericalorraine7943Think long term, personally i ventured into the market so i won’t be stranded after i retire. A colleague of mine introduced me to CFA " Teresa Jensen White " who drew out retirement plans and they all aligned with what i wanted and had to pick one plan and with her exit and entry strategies on commodities, securities and digital assets, my portfolio has really been diversified with good ROI. I am really impressed by how much i have achieved
Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future
“To keep product data secure” picture of windows 7 being used 🤣 nice.
PRAYING FOR ALL THOSE PRECIOUS PEOPLE UNDER WATER THE LORD PROTECT EACH ONE.
I was an infantryman w 1st Cav 68-70, and I gotta tell you, there’s no frigen way I’d get on one of these and spend months underwater 😳I’d be claustrophobic as hell. My salute to the guys who are in submarine service. Salute👍
A trouser salute no doubt
Yeah I couldn't do it either as the ocean terrifies me lol.
I thought I was the only one, I was a Marine and I couldn’t do it either, I’m claustrophobic as well.
@@aawells07 That's the neat part: you're not in the ocean, you're in a submarine!
Haha, that sounds weird, but you often just forget you're underwater, it feels like you're just stuck in a small building.
I dunno why but that still scares the shit out of me lol. The ocean is incredibly intimidating to me. @@micahphilson
One observation about a sailor being on a submarine is that the sailors are working, eating, living and sleeping in the confines of a specialized machine that travels underwater. They are inside this machine for the duration of their mission and basically cut off from the rest of the world. It must take special people to handle this type of living conditions.
My youngest son was on SS in Hawaii for 3yrs had enough and worked in Groton repairing and testing subs. Retired
Submariners either are, or become, a very special breed. Let me put it like this, if you're out to sea and a family member dies you won't know about it until you step on dry land again. There are no communications and safety protocols prevent it. I know a guy who was a submariner, the longest trip he did was 9 months. Even he admitted he became a bit weird after that. 9 months and it's essentially a different world you're coming back to, 9 months of missed news.
@@shingnosis thats not true for the most part. Your COC will ve notified via redcross emergency msg. On most subs you'll have access points to the outside world. You're not under water 9 months at a time
@@cryptocannoli2512 Different navies and vessels operate differently. He was out for 9 months and didn't see sunlight. Feel free to tell him he's lying, he'll probably knock your front teeth out. Lol.

My boy, Kevin, has been a Submariner for almost 12 years now. You do not know how hard it can be. My MOST respect and accolades to the Submariners. He is set to do sea trials later this year SSN Massachusetts SSN-798.
Honestly, it's refreshing to see this comment. I think you'd understand better than most people here.
Everyone thinks the hardest part is being underwater or being cramped like that. But that's nothing. Especially not compared to the daily grind.
Even the easiest jobs I've seen on subs are ridiculous compared to most civilian jobs, but then you get to the lives of and the expectations placed on all the nuclear operators and the officers... it's not an easy life. I simultaneously love my work and hate my job.
Very proud of your son sir tell him we say thank you for his services 🙏
Proud of my submariner ❤
I work where these are being built. We build subs and carriers and they're both interesting to see in person. Hats off to the service members that can spend months on either of them.
I am in awe of these folks. I can’t imagine being that brave. Thank you to all service people.
BTW I am not an expert on the Navy, just know that much, and a bit more but so cool! Mad respect for these guys! It must not be easy to live on there for that long at a time! God Bless them! I have been a couple older subs, or enemy subs we captured or are in the USA. But I've never seen a modern Nuclear Powered Sub up close, it must be an amazing sight to see up close!
They thank each other. With their wrists.

Every submariner: *_dies laughing_*
To all who serve the great United States of America, God Speed!
These guys are not given enough praise for what they are and do ! It takes a VERY specialized guy to be able to pass that training. When I was a Flight Attendant and the guys came home for whatever. I would bring the liquor kit to them and say TAKE WHATEVER YOU WANT AND AS MUCH AS YOU WANT . Then I would just write it off to catering … they absolutely deserve it ,..thank you guys and God Bless you all!

You’re the goat 🐐
Dang, I wish I had you as my flight attendant!
Then again, I don't really advertise what I do. The only real military benefit I ever take is boarding first, after the disabled and elderly. The less I have to think about my job on leave, the better.
Navy: "A good and happy crew means you have darn good cooks onboard"
Subs have good cooks on board because the crew knows where they sleep. Their mistakes have been known to show up in their bunks.
I'm really grateful for all of my boat's cooks. Each one is really good at what they do. You can even tell who cooked what based on what's served, the sweetness or spices, and general flair!
Even the most basic meals, where there was no time or resources were running low, are so much better than what I've heard about any surface ship!
Been on a few subs. The silent service. It’s tight, crammed and takes a special breed of men to adapt. Everyone relies on each other.
Bravo Zulu
US Navy #1. 🇺🇸
absolutely. breed of people* though. since 2010 women have been able to serve on subs too per updated Navy policy.
@@sethd6485
Correct. US Navy.

Hat's off to the submariners !!!
it is so hard work , i would not like to work there !! if u dont have famly is good
God bless all who protect us!
Hats off to these guys it's not easy to spend 3 months under water
And 3 is just for ballistic subs, the others all do 6 month deployments!
The most important weapon on a Navy sub? The food.
Yes gotta feed the nuclear operators
And what's the most important paper? Toilet paper.
@@2wayzplayz179 m
The most important weapon/need of all the military is food, destroy their food chain, destroy their forces.
Absolutely

I served in the Royal Navy back in the 1990's. I respected Submariners as these naval personel are a special breed whichever navy you belong to.
God Save the King and our Allies
Your taxpayers' money at work, ladies and gentlemen. And a salute to the sailors doing their very best keeping our country safe while staying above the abyss.
I have worked over 12 years and still working in Indian navy submarine Called Arihant class it was wonderful experience in my life and i enjoy a lot working in submarine in the deep ocean with my crew it's like an another family to me🔥

Glad our USA 🇺🇸 guys eating great. Made me hungry.
The food on subs is very important to morale. The navy makes sure they're eating good!
Interesting documentary. The importance of those tug boats, the food being good and the morale of the submariners very clear evident.
Prayers for all our military personnel keeping us safe 🙏
Yeah!!!
Cool video, good work. I lived on boats for 10 years, from old diesel electric to the most fierce warship ever laid. Was port and starboard the entire time on the last boat, sleep was not had. It was a very intense life-style to say the least. I remember walking on boxes of canned food upon leaving, all lined up in the berthing quarters along the deck. After chasing around everyone on deployment, then maybe having to do other stuff, you start picking away at those boxes of cans. As we would get out of our racks in the dark and move down the passageway, you'd find the holes where the cranks took out a box and you'd take a header off something on the way down. A lot of tough love to be had, but all in all, it was an amazing time in my life and I appreciate what I learned and who I served with. BTW, there are many different vintages, types, and even multiple countries boats represented in this video so don't take it too much to accuracy of details as it would apply to our current new builds. The LA class was the game-changer, and cold-war stopper.
Very good God bless you all
I did one Nuc and one Diesel 64 to 70.
COOL VIDEO WHERES THE SAAB SUB GONE ? WHY IS AMERICA LAYING THE KEEL FOR SWEDEN ? SORRY I JUST GOT CONFUSED A BIT WITH THEIR GOOD WORK AT 2 TOTALLY DIFFERENT SUBS WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE , THEY COMMISSIONED A SWEDISH SUB IN AMERICA AND YOU THINK ITS A COOL VIDEO...... REALLY . BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SWEDEN AND U.S IN SUBS MY FRIEND OR DID YOU NOTICE THE US LAYING THE KEEL FOR SWEDEN ? GOD
I'm not a submarine, But at least I'm a Marine.
🔥
What, you don't like the thought of canned men?
You're in the Marines. I'm in the Sardines. We are not the same.
Correct.@@micahphilson
I helped build these at Newport News Shipbuilding. You don't realize how huge they are until you see them up close.

Wonderfull machines!!!!!
What an excellent informative video! Thanks.
Wonderful machines. If I was young again I’d jump at the chance to serve on one.
You had your chance, you blew that opportunity
Nahh.. All peoples just a same. Live to love much better
@@PurpleObscuration pretty sure he knows that man. I don’t even think your comment was necessary.
@ Kim Schneider,
If you are happy with your life then you made the right choice. You probably wouldn't be married to the man you're married to, you wouldn't have his family in your life.
I'm a former US Marine, I went to proudly serve my country and nothing else. I'm in the architectural industry, there is nothing I learned from the USMC that transferred over into my industry, I'm okay with that.
You should be proud that you at least considered it
@@PurpleObscuration thanks for the reply. Just a couple things though. I’m a man, not a woman. I have a wife and two great kids. But your right about life’s path. Like the butterfly effect, one event no matter how small in one’s lifespan can change the trajectory of their life. So yes, I guess I wouldn’t change a thing.
I can’t believe people exist that can make that a reality..wow
Feel short of breath just watching this
You can defiantly tell that many of these sailors want a break.
Sub work would be very hard.
Defiantly? Defiant is someone who doesn't follow orders. The sailors DEFINITELY are not defiant....they would be thrown in the Brig. Just FYI: Definitely and defiantly have two very different definitions.
@@CJOlin it may have been his Grammarly/Word correct in action. I definitely have to keep an eye open on my software. Just a thought.
@@CJOlin dude you're DEFINITELY annoying
@@CJOlin seriously? So that’s what that means????
Thanks, guys, for another outstanding video. Even as a Navy vet from long ago, I still appreciate what our fine young men and women are doing each day as they serve our country.
I was a Marine for 20 years but wanted to do the Navy. Damn recruiter was never around lol.
Bless you bro
It's overwhelmingly amazing and scary af , a pure combination of a deadly beast. I'm pretty sure even the people operating them on a daily basis don't understand what kind of savage machine they're using. Art at its finest ❤️ the pinnacle of human imagination.
Not really. Submariners have to qualify to continue serving onboard. You have roughly 1-year to earn your qualification. If you fail, you are shipped off to the surface fleet. That being said, the qualification is comprised of every system on board, electrical & mechanical. You MUST learn and understand how every system works and is interconnected with other systems. Learning how one failed component can cause multiple problems throughout the boat. You must learn damage control technique, how the internal ventilation system is designed, everything about the emergency recovery systems, how the reactor systems work, memorize how the waters systems are designed and what modes and operations are performed by it. This isn’t just the mechanical rates, everyone on board has to have a basic knowledge of the submarines entire systems to stay and work on board. The funny part is this, those qualifications are just the “basic knowledge required”, you have to build on that knowledge to qualify higher level watch stations.
Man, if you're gonna be on a submarine deployment for 3-6 months, the boat with that one guy with an eye patch is definitely the one you want to be on....
Most likely using the patch so the covered eye stays ready for low-light conditions.
He’s the janitor

Great video guys .
Thanks You to the US NAVY.
YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST !!!
L.GRAHAM ...HAMPTON, VIRGINIA !!!
They're the best at what they do, the primary purpose purpose of the military is to fight when needed to defend our country. Many of you may not know this, but the US Marine Corp is in the department of the US Navy, the US Marine Corp is the best prepared fighting force in our Nations and in the world, traditionally Marines end through the sea, secure territory for the army and sometimes the air force. When that has been accomplished they leave through the sea. Marines are Americas amphibious force
At the 7:37 mark, If an Army MARCHES on its stomach then I guess a Navy FLOATS on its stomach.
even surface ships use dry docks if it involves hull repairs or maintenance or something with the props or shafts
Damn , I really miss "pizza night" ! . . .
Italian night wasn't bad either
I liked the fact we had steak three times a week on my boat. Loved those Rib Eyes!!!
I don't remember ever having that much steak on my boats . Not enough freezer space for a 90-day load out with all that we needed for a balanced menu . CHOP would've been in trouble for that one.
@@pedrosalazar4748 Could be a result of the times. I was in 1964 to 1970. Also it may have depended on who your skipper was. Out Capt was a WW II white hat who got Academy trained as an officer. Also towards the end of my enlistment porkchops were starting to be assigned to boats vs a Jr line officer as Supply. Ours ended up as having come off a DD almost right to the boat. Proved to be pretty much of a Dick.
Essa tecnologia tem que ser usada para proteger a vida marítima...
Such a great recruitment video.
Very good USA
All the money couldn't pay me to be on a submarine but I thank the sailors who work hard and put their lives in harms way to defend our freedom. Btw, as a retired Navy , my preference are destroyers and cruisers. Go Navy!!
One thing I’m going to dispel is the myth that submarines had great food ie better than the surface guys. Most skimmers and bubble heads don’t go onto the others ships so this myth persists. Near the end of my career I worked as a rider for SUBLANT being farmed out to a DESRON as a sub liaison for water space management. I rode Perry’s Burkes and Ticos. I also rode with NATO in an Italian flagship. I was surprised with the quality of the food onboard. Some were ok and some were amazing. BTW having an open bar in the mess decks on the Italian ship was a big plus.
Out Strding USA 🇺🇸 😎
You need to be a different breed of person to handle being a submariner. Could not pay me enough to spend months at a time inside a metal tube in the ocean lol.
Mad respect to the ones who do.
A Mars bar was the most precious thing to me on the ship, Reese peanut butter cups was a close second, pizza ALWAYS makes people brighten up!
Man all those make u fat...
The shots of the sea, and the ocean, are mesmerizing.

@@whitemailprivilege2830 ok !....
I know a crew member. He said they eat like kings and are always on duty at a moments notice!
To think that right now in the middle of the Pacific ocean, deep below the water, someone is baking a fresh pizza.
I want to live in submarie for couple of months. Just to enjoy food.. Yum, yum, yummy.
Back in the time of the Iran hostage situation sub patrols lasted six months underwater, and sailors received credit for two yrs. Service.
Bull. You can’t carry enough suppliesto stay underwater that long. Ever since nukes joined the fleet
Patrol (assuming you are a fast attack) ever may last 6 months or more, but your generally bouncing in and out of port showing the flag.
Bullcrap. I've sailed in Nuc Subs and you carry around 90 days of stores. 30 days of which is emergency store and you really don't want to be eating those as all the good stuff has already been eaten. (50 years later I still can't look at a 3 bean salad) Deployment may last 6 months, (my old boat did an 11 month deployment but only remained submerged for around 60 days at a time.) but the need to reload stores is every few months. Really, learn your shit before you open your mouth.
@@bammab977 they managed to re-supply them with mainly the basic survivial supplies/food, and a few extras so they had what they needed to stay underwater. Yes, this made it hard on several crew members, but they stuck with it.
Nope, 6 months under water without surfacing does not occur because of food supplies that need to be replenished - even being highly creative and stretching food supplies, 6 months straight is not possible due to the size of the crew.
@@LiPo5000 So, what boats you sailed in that makes you so informed? How many days you been submerged? How deep you been? What was your longest underwater deployment?

I think I can't sleep every night underwater...................
Great job crew! I appreciate each and everyone of you!!!
Tuyệt Vòi lắm
I love the mystery of the ocean, but I will NEVER voluntarily choose to explore it.
I'm clostrophobic and I've inspected many types of marine military vessels.A Submariner is a special individual whose sensory deprivation is reduced to surface,sub,mission and fresh air.I can't imagine a prison at or in the sea; this is it.
Clostrophobic?? Come on...learn to write it at least...
You're 💯
My dad served with a guy in the submarines that had claustrophobia. None of them know why, but this guy was just determined to be a submariner. Anytime he had a panic attack, they just knocked him out lol.
Man I just don't know how submariners do it. Sewer pipe Sailors have a very difficult Iife l think. 2 months underway underwater would be jail. I don't know how they do it. More power to them.
Some people are just wired different. I know people who prefer to be indoors with all their windows covered and no fresh air, to being outside in the elements. I am not one of those people. I go nuts after one day indoors.
@@theobserver9131,

I have complete admiration, respect and appreciation to all U.S. Navy personnel who serve and have served. Love them all, and I thank you all very much! This is a great video; very informative, I just have one issue with the flow of information. The video begins with a U.S. Navy submarine on the surface showing its Colors (US Flag) and then jumps to SAAB a Swedish company that designs and builds truly incredible world class submarines. Then the video jumps to the commissioning ceremony of a U.S. Navy submarine without stating that the U.S. Navy Subs are designed by General Dynamics Electric Boat Company & Huntington Ingalls Industries and are constructed by New Port News Shipbuilding, all in the US. 100% United States of America. The video is 11:16 minuets long, add a few more seconds and state that the U.S. Navy Virginia Class submarines have nothing to do with Sweden and SAAB Industries. Just saying….
Yeah... I was going to mention the same thing, until I saw that over two million people watched it and obviously did not care...
You have an IQ of four.
My next older brother was a lifer and chief on nuke boats. He was on duty during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
This submarine looks spacious compare to some other.
Impresionante máquina....💪💪💪💪💪💪
Couldn’t pay me enough to get into any submarine and go under water…
A brave person does it like a champ.
um im not sure SAAB makes american subs ?? i thought that was general dynamics and so forth
Correct. SAAB does not make the U.S. submarines.
@@TheSpawnacus yea but this video makes it out like they do... lol
@@jeepsblackpowderandlights4305 yes it does...lol
Submarines are like underwater ships.
Fascinating 🥰🤗
I have looked everywhere to try and confirm that the Virginia-class submarines are made anywhere else other than in the USA. From Wikipedia: "The Virginia class is built through an industrial arrangement designed to maintain both GD Electric Boat and Newport News Shipbuilding, the only two U.S. shipyards capable of building nuclear-powered submarines. Under the present arrangement, the Newport News facility builds the stern, habitability, machinery spaces, torpedo room, sail, and bow, while Electric Boat builds the engine room and control room. The facilities alternate work on the reactor plant as well as the final assembly, test, outfit, and delivery." I SEE NO EVIDENCE THAT THEY ARE BUILT BY SAAB.
SAAB builds subs. Just not for the USA. (The video never actually claimed that the Virginia-class submarines are made by SAAB)
U.S. subs are 100% U.S. built. Very few parts are sourced from LCGs and none of critical nature.
they are not, Saab does build some Diesel powered subs , but not for the US Navy. This whole video is just a bunch of irrelevent facts taken from different videos. Pointless.
🥱
Is this Ohio nuclear submarine ? IT can carry more than 110 missles including the nuclear missles of 10 Marches Speech.
No it doesn't carry 110 missiles, the guided missile submarines converted can carry that amount but no nukes on those, other than propulsion. The SSBN can carry multiple warheads but only so many tridents.
