Pat Riot Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Did you see the target in the ice? They were a little off but close. Thanks for the video, Marshal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm that. After the Hammerhead sailed under the ice cap we had a lot of work to do in the sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What it is, is............they push a Navy SEAL out one of the torpedo tubes and have him remove it before contact with the ice. The SEAL is armed with a sharp ice pick and chisels his way up to the top and rejoins his feller shipmates back on the sub with the undamaged antenna. Once on board the Sub, he gets a nice bonus of a good T-bone steak AND a picture of him holding the antenna before its placed back on the sub. PLUS, as a bragging bonus, he gets a sticky of an antenna, which is normally stuck onto his hardshell gun case..... ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wapaloosie73 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I knew a Recon Marine that thought lock outs were for wimps. In his day they shot em out of the torpedo tubes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailrider #896 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Ice Station Zebra? I think I'd want to be a little careful with them sharp pointy tools over the deck! Especially if they are to submerge again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On his boat, the diving planes were on the sail and could rotated vertically to act as cutters. Cool pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subdeacon Joe Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 OK ... dumb question of the day - WHY do submariners wear caps? Indoors, not even a window. WHY do they need the ball caps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff Hanger #3720LR Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Several reasons. Those at the dive station to shade their eye from the overhead lighting. To keep the headphones from hurting after wearing 6 hours. Worn as an overhead equipment locator before your head. ------------------ Actually it seemed to be optional. Look at other videos and you will be hard pressed to find ball caps worn. So, it is my opinion the ball caps where worn for the making of the video.
