I learned one thing about being in a submarine. My friends husband was in and worked on the nuclear powered subs. My friends wife told me don’t worry about throwing eggs away when they expire. She told me husband was down there 3 months at a time and still ate the eggs no problem. As for me the worst I ever had to suffer was 6 weeks in basic training where for weeks you couldn’t leave the base. I know USAF. Everyone says we are the soft force. Say what you want but during a fire fight the sweetest sound is a plane flying in spraying a bunch of ammo to let the guys make their way out. Yep they were blessing that plane then lol. Not the same. I admire you guys who can go down in the subs for months with nowhere to go. That must really drive you stir crazy.
