When this sub came into Kings Bay for supplies, I got lucky and got
a tour of it. Real impressive and it's a lot bigger that it looks.

Really?! Sounds great. I've toured a number of WWII fleet subs,
including one that was docked on the Detroit River still commisioned
when I was a boy but I've never been fortunate enough to tour a
nuclear sub of any kind. I imagine that while they're still cramped
they're nothing like the little tin cans 110 or so officers and men
went to see in during the war. And, there's only a couple of heads
for all those guys and they had to hot-bunk!
