Someone posted earlier that nukes that want to work on subs dont have to go to sub school.....is there any truth to this statement? or could anyone offer an explanation?
Pressure testing was 50 psig in a chamber and the tower was a simulated escape from the 50 foot water depth in the escape tower.
True. It takes about two years to get a nuke to the fleet and much of a nukes training is damage control and systems making Sub school somewhat redundant. My info is a bit dated but what we did do as the ships schedule allowed was to go through pressure testing and escape tower training. Pressure testing was 50 psig in a chamber and the tower was a simulated escape from the 50 foot water depth in the escape tower.
This was the best day at sub school - I wanted to do it again...
Is this the exercise that you have to like scream at the top of your lungs while ascending?
