[baldguy]

5. The kind I'm not in

I don't know how those guys do it. I toured a WWII sub once (not sure what kind it was - it was anchored in Mobile Bay with the USS Alabama) and while I don't get claustrophobic, I kinda did in there. Add to that being underwater, which I'm not real thrilled about and no thanks!

I'm an infantry kinda gal.

[Jamastiene]

[petronius]

10. The research subs that go really really really deep. I would accept an invitation

to ride in one, if someone wants to shoot me a message - anyone? anyone?

[Ivan Sputnik]

11. yellow

[Tom Kitten]

12. The ones that fly and can drill through things

like...ATRAGON!




Just what you need in order to fight the dragon death-ray subs from the evil Mu Empire!

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

13. Salami,

toasted, please, with a little mayo, lettuce, onions, provolone cheese, oil and vinegar, salt and pepper. and a few hot pepper rings.

[Jamastiene]

15. A yellow one with

a woman wearing in itzy bitzy teeny weenie yellow polka dot bikini driving it.

[Bucky]

17. The U-boat that sank the Lusitania. Good job, boys. I hate tourists, too.

Also it makes my "causes of US involvement in WWI" lecture more interesting.

[old mark]

18. I was on a WWII era sub in the Philly Navy Yard about 50 years ago.

and you would never get me on one again, especially one that was going out to sea.

I was in the Army, where if someone is shooting at you you can do a sensible thing like run away or hide in a hole, neither of which you can do on a submarine.

I'm also not comfortable with that underwater thing.

31. I've often thought that it must have taken a certain breed of insanity

I've often thought that it must have taken a certain breed of courage born from insanity to serve on the old WW2 subs.

I'm certainly not saying I would have done any better in a tank, or a bomber, or dug in on the line, but I seriously think I would have peed myself to sleep every night had I been canned up like a mackerel, 100 feet below sea level, thinking that every creak, groan or pop was the end of the line.

I shudder at the thought of what those guys went through...

[Callalily]

19. No favorite submarine, but

I've only been on one submarine, and that was the USS Cobra. A tour. The submarine is extremely small. I can't imagine a bunch of men living in there for any length of time.

[NutmegYankee]

22. Virginia Class

America's first post-Cold War nuclear powered submarine.

[Ikonoklast]

23. Skipjack Class. I remember those the best.

I spent many a summer in Connecticut on Long Island Sound in the 60's, and had relatives that worked at the Electric Boat works. I remember watching the boats glide down the Thames and out into the Sound.



But the only boat I was ever on was the USS Cod anchored in Cleveland.

[triguy46]

24. the nookular kind...

25. Nuclear submarines are okay but ...

It tingles when you take a shower and after your second tour, you glow in the dark.

[Optical.Catalyst]

26. Redneck Submarines

Only in Alabama can you find a submarine up on blocks in the front yard.

32. I found the "soft" water to be the pits for a shower.

Damn soap is just a pain to wash off.

[RetroLounge]

27. U505

Only one I've ever been on and in.

28. Prince Namor

"For every oil spill and every bay bottom covered in sewage, for every barrel of garbage and poison dumped illegally into the sea, for the hundreds of species hunted to the brink of extinction, for my friends the blue whales, you WILL find me..."

[NJmaverick]

29. The Gato Class
