- We got an inside look at how the United States Navy trains sailors to work on Submarines during its eight-week course at the Basic Enlisted Submarine School at Naval Submarine Base New London, Groton, CT.
Students train to combat worst-case onboard scenarios such as flooding and fires in realistic simulators. They also learn the techniques they must employ if they have to escape from a submarine and ascend to the ocean surface inside a trainer known as the Pressurized Submarine Escape Trainer or PSET. Volunteers for submarine duty go through a mental health screening, and according to the Navy, can be disqualified if they are diagnosed with depression or anxiety disorders - medical issues that don't necessarily disqualify applicants from other roles in the US military.
INSIDER spent 6 days inside the Submarine School to observe different classes of students at various stages of training.

How Navy Sailors Train To Work On $2 Billion Submarines | Boot Camp | Insider Business
Crazy respect for anyone who can serve on a sub, or any ship in combat for that matter. I was in the army, and at least on the battlefield I felt I had some small ability to respond to threats. Someone shooting at me? Ok I can shoot back, or dive into a ditch, throw a grenade, etc. Imagine being on a sub in the middle of a battle and all you can do is man your station to the end. Explosions, flooding, blood, and your best hope to survive (beyond damage control) is just run the radar, watch the pumps, etc and pray the old man knows what he’s doing.
Well, submariners usually get a lot more responsibility and training so there's no dead weight, no matter what happens. But yeah, in the end you have to trust everyone implicitly.
@@acceptablecasualty5319a question from an ol Army Sgt. How the heck can you sleep with the racket going from the speakers ??
usually when a drill is called general quarters it's a all hands effort..if you are asleep you have to get up.
@@carlcolvin8320
Its funny. I'm currently in BESS, but its funny that Marines and Soldiers think that what we do (in my case WILL do) is crazy, because we think what YA'LL do is crazy.
@@jaydenmorris2560former submariner
My close friends are combat vets
You couldn’t be any more correct how we see each other
These are the NICEST trainer instructors I have EVER seen in ANY branch of the military
On camera I'd say?
I went through this exact course back in 2008 trust me when I say they weren’t this nice when the cameras weren’t rolling. I fondly remember once in A school they PT’ed us on the baseball/soccer field until some kid got heat exhaustion and was actually hospitalized. The instructors were notorious for never letting us have water breaks when we pt’d and this kid collapsed on the field right in the middle of us one day. After that they were a lot nicer but only because they didn’t want to get in trouble lol
@@joshs9066I believe in training hard as if mattered in a real world situation.
But refusing water breaks on the east coast in the summer those instructors were looking for a heat stroke casualty. The should have been shit canned busted a rank and sent to a surface ship. Just my opinion from an ol Army Sgt.
Submariner instructor do raise their voices if draw attention to themselves to endanger yours fellow sailors.
Well, they will drop your azz... but, they are not as likely to snap like basic.
As a Sailor in this video, we’ve been waiting for this to release since November
Was the video complete? Do you have something to add up? How much you learn? How many days per year you have off?
@@DarkGT The video skipped our PT sessions and a few other things but mostly covered it. We learn what we need to and we get the same time off as the rest of the navy.
@@dragovichkiller7080 You still here? In the same area of CT. Sort of.
Looking forward on EB getting those New Subs built and operating including the Columbia class.
Going to need more shipyards to keep up with our Adversaries. EB needs to fund other locations.
OCEAN Gate brought me here. I am now a fully trained and experienced submarine engineer. After this video I will have my Navy badge as well.

I joined the US Navy on May 22, 1980. I spent 9 years, 11 months and 29 days on active duty. I’d give anything to do it all over again. What a great time I had.
thx for your service bro

What was great about it Kaptain?
Thanks for your service bro , i'd be most honnored to be the 1st on the list of heart donation or transplatw no 2nd thoiughts no 2nd chances i'd do it anyway as my way to repay you and thank you for your service
Thank you for your service! ❤
I was a submariner and this training will never be used, aside from the firefighting, it's only to weed out the claustrophobic and the ones who can't mentally handle the stress. The stress underway is incredible and we can't have people flaking out while on mission. Once you get your fish, and not until, you'll finally be trusted by the crew.
The DC wet trainer is by far the best and most fun training I ever received in the military. Not a sub guy, so I went to BECC in Great Mistakes, where the water in the trainer was pumped in right from Lake Michigan - a nasty prospect in February. I got to do it again at NOB Norfolk with most of my engineering department, which also pulled us all closer together as a crew as a lot of us worked together for the first time under those conditions.
The sub school wet trainer is some next level stuff. I absolutely loved it. Been to a few trainers here and there and the sub school trainers are by far the most intense. There's a pipe rupture called "the beast" that blasts water hard enough to take paint off the wall 3 levels up above it and across the trainer. A kid got paralyzed at the trainer because the team patching the beast had only one hand on the strong back, it slipped out and went flying across the trainer, striking him in the spine hard enough to instantly paralyze him.
If the sub sinks, I hope you rescue me. I am a nuke and we don't do this submarine training. We just do our own training and then immediately get tossed on the boat.
@@funveeable Keep up the work as a nuke on sub. I've heard it is incredibly hard work/school from a few drop outs that moved to my DDG-92 engineering department. Also, random... But I wonder how covid was handled on a submarine.
You all are masochists. Wet training is the worst. DC fire trainer is fun though
+briansvedin1788 Agree. I did submarine training (BESS) and the Wet trainer was fun. It had only recently been overhauled when I got to experience it (escape trunk trainer was being overhauled, never got to do it). The fire fight training was basic, just like Great Lakes.
This was pretty cool to watch. My Dad was a submariner back in the 60’s who went through a real flooding situation that if wasn’t for him and two other sailors the sub would have been lost.
wish it sank so your cringe attention bullshit comment wasn't here
The instructors looked so calm and supportive. Not my cup of tea but whatever floats your boat! I commend these youngsters.
Don't forget that the camera was rolling right next to him :D After the cam they are all fu*ked
We calculated that at 800 ft you had less than 15 seconds to get to the surface before the bends kicked in. You don’t submerge until you reach the break waters at that depth. All of us under stood if something happens and there is no DSRV we ain’t making it back. Still proud to be a fast attack sailor.
I was just thinking this that if something goes wrong at depth no way they're making it if they're that far below and if something did manage to get them out for whatever reason decompression sickness would most likely set in. Terrifying to think of so I'm not surprised they go under mental evaluations for this.
The escape hatch exists for moms and congressmen
I really enjoy watching this training. I don’t mean to be morbid, but the sad part is that the escape training wouldn’t help unless under very lucky circumstances. But most times a submarine is floating hundreds of feet below the sea. Dark, cold and under high pressure, so making an escape from a sinking sub is almost unfeasible. Thankfully, billions of dollars of R&D and go into creating US subs and the same is spent on training the navy to be the smartest branch in the military. Bless these trainees
You are absolutely correct. If a sub is "Stuck on the bottom", it's NOT going to be 37 feet. Remember, you have to pressurize the escape tank to the equivalent pressure of the depth you're at. Our periscope depth was 68 feet! When I did the escape trainer in 71 at Groton, it was 50 feet if I remember correctly. Overall, a very good video. Oh, and after you qualify for your dolphins, you're a submariner.
@HollywoodBob39 you are very correct... earn your fish and then I will call you a Submariner... until then... your a nub
Also a very important command that not many know about... Undersea Rescue Command... that who the world calls when subs go down. It used to be called Deep Submergence Unit. Bring on that ocean... subs will punch holes in it and king Neptune will bow to us for respect.
And now we have a missing sub 🥹😢
@@HollywoodBob39 Interesting. Is the periscope depth not confidential in the US navy? Because it is confidential and we are not allowed to mention it while i was serving in the Singapore Navy.
I’m currently a submariner, and here’s my opinion on the job, it’s not made for everyone, I’ve seen men from 18-40 year olds tap (tap means they quit usually by medical issues like mental) but taking aside the challenges which aren’t hard to defeat with the great team you work with, the benefits outweigh everything, compared to the surface navy I wouldn’t have been as successful if I took another route, the pay is the last of my concerns, I got to do things I never imagined I would get into, I joined as a CSS who ended up learning things and qualifying different rates, the way we do things the whole idea of military bearing is almost gone with the fact that I see my superiors every day. I got to see cool places with my first duty station being Hawaii, and indeed after getting my dolphins being a submariner is something I’m really proud of (I also get to shit surface Navy for not being as cool as us lol) but I’m not a recruiter if anything I’ve been in the Navy for 2 years now but the little I can share, I will never regret joining the Sub Force
I’m glad you liked it! For most people it’s a terrible idea to be on a sub, imo
NUB
@@johnstrassner8061 lmao. You must be a fellow TM?
Thank you for your service brave one
Ey im a css too, you in Hawaii?
I did the submarine escape tank in the UK when I joined submarines. We did an escape at 30 feet, 2 at 60 feet and a compartment escape at 100 feet. After three years you had to do the escape tank again, but this time it was 1 at 30 feet, 1 at 60 feet and a one man escape at 100 feet. This was in 1965
I just went through these trainers like 2 weeks ago, it’s funny to see insider did a video on it in places I literally was just in
I went through BESS in Jan/Feb 1965. We did the school work, pressure chamber and the Escape Tank. At the end of the training we went out on a number of the Diesel Subs operating out of the base and made dives and surfaces in Long Island Sound all the time operating various equipment and controls like the bow and stern planes. Many of these boats had made war patrols in WW II. The escape tank we used was 110 feet tall and had a 50 foot chamber that everyone had to make at least two escapes from. The first one was the Blow and Go just using the May West life Jacket and the second one was using the Steinke hood that just covered your head. It was just a May West life Jacket with a hood. The 100 foot level was used for other training that the basic Sub School sailor didn't normality do. There was no Wet Trainer at the time or fire training. Fire training was done in Boot Camp. My section began school with 40 guys and we graduated 14 eight weeks later.
What base were those stubs operating out of to be sailing in the sound?
@@HE-162 Sub Base New London in Groton Ct. Same place as where sub school is at.
does the suit protect from decompression sickness ?
@@TheJimyyy NO. It is just to ensure an air supply during the assent. The amount of time allowed to escape is based on the pressure at the time spent at depth. At 100 feet there is lots of time to make the escape and ascend. At 600 feet the time is about 45 seconds to pressurize and begin assent.
@@webbtrekker534 diver need to stop to take make sure the body adapt to the pressure in every few meter , so at hundred of meter deep im pretty sure it is very bad , if you go up too quickly the gas in your body will build up and you will swoll like a ballon and get pretty bad heatlh issues or even die the pressure is cause by the water itself
Huge respect for every sailor in the silent service!
My son just graduated Navy bootcamp at Great lakes. His job is a Meterologist❤
Major credit for these kids! just seeing this give me anxiety I know I couldn’t do it:(
Admiration, love and my highest respect to these submarine sailors who give everything for all of us to continue having this freedom.
I recently enlisted in the U.S. Navy, and when I got offered the bonus for SECF, I took it. When I first talked to my recruiter, I said I didn't want to be in a submarine. Now, im excited for bootcamp next month and then going to Submarine school.
Same thing for me I signed yesterday for SECF lemme know how you doin right now I’d like to know what school is like and all of that 60k signing bonus and I was just like that sounds good with me
@BWGBGAMES Hey, how's it going. So far, so good. I graduated boot camp in January and arrived at Submarine School. After boot camp, you will need to go through Basic Enlisted Submarine School, which is located in Connecticut, before A school. Aside from that, you can get 3 rates from SECF. It just depends on your orders. I got Sonar Tech, and so far, it's awesome. It's challenging but awesome. The base is cool, and so are the surrounding areas. Boot camp can be challenging and hard, but just push through!
@@VICG21 when you get to your boat, WORK YOUR BUTT OFF to qualify standing watch in port (petty officer of the deck) and at sea (broadband for STS). Don't go on the DINQ list for your dolphins or your chief and your sea dad will make your life hell.
@underwaterlevelz1947 thanks for the advice. I definitely want to qualify as fast as possible
Thank You to the U.S Navy and all of the brave men and women all around the world!🌎 Thank You for all you do..from a U.S Army Veteran!
I failed a scuba training due to inability to equalize pressure in my ears. Underwater is a really scary place
When I was in boot camp we asked the RDC which was the worst duty station. They all said “Groton, Connecticut.”
Mine told me Norfolk VA 😂😂😂😂😂
Rotten Groton
85 bucks extra per month than other duties really ain't something to be bragging about bruv
Yeah I absolutley would not do sub work for that. Submarines freak me out so bad
think you legit have to have intrest to commit. 85$ is the last thing they care about
That only for an E-1. You arent gonna see many (or any) E-1's on a sub. Sub pay ranges from $85 to $450 a month. Then, depending on your rate, you can get special duty assignment pay. Nuclear qualified submariners get a "nuke pro" pay as well, and then tgey also get massive bonuses. $38K for enlisting, more bonuses for being a sub volunteer. If a nuke re-enlists for just 2 more years of service (from 6 years to 8 years), they get around $100,000. Making $75 to $85K a year is not bad for a 22 to 24 year old. Then you get all the college money, on top of the training you receive counting as college credits, making it really easy to get a degree when you get out. While other people are stacking up student loan debts, you can get out with a free ride at any college you want to, or go straight to the workforce making a lot of money.
agree 💯
that's less than 50¢ per hour to do that much more dangerous job. that's why they recruit at 16-18 before you really understand WTF you have gotten into. they should be compensated vastly more than they are.
When I was there... they had shut down the simulator for submarine escape. We just simulated. The flooding simulator and SeaWolf Helm/Planes man simulators were my favorite.
I will never understand why would anyone want to be in a submarine.
The bonus they give us when u apply, u jus don’t know aht u getting into but hearing “bonus” fills yo head up
Plus sub rates it’s fast to rank up
😂😂😂 seriously tho
Well I'm glad people like you aren't in one. These guys have my respect. I understand why, it's because they want to push themselves and do what no one else wants to do. They have an experience that little people on earth has experienced.
@@anonymlulz8273 so you're gay
Best series on this channel by far!
Great work shipmates! Go Navy!
My first day on my first boat a 1st class A-Ganger told me, “Escape trunks are for mothers and Congressmen. In the Pacific, as soon as we leave port the water is deeper than crush depth.”
Same thing it was the a gang LPO for me
I got wide-eyed and immediately realized shit is real lol 😂
The missing submersible brought me here 😢
There now dead sadly..
Not all submariners go thru BESS. Nuclear qualified sailors spend 18 to 24 months in training before they go to a sub, compared to the 3 months of BESS. Nukes spend the last 6 months of training on a training submarine, or a land based nuclear plant with similar systems of that in a sub. Even when you get to a sub, you still have to get qualified, and that takes several months.
God bless Hyman G. Rickover
Excellent presentation. My nephew's son graduated from Nuke School and is assigned to the USS IDAHO. he loves it.
You make some good money on subs, when I got out as an E-5 after 5 years I was bringing in around 6k a month stationed at Kings Bay, GA. You also make rank pretty quickly but can also depends on performance and job obviously. Came in as E-1 and made it to E-5 in around 3 Years (I'm not kidding), joined 12 July 2018 and frocked 2nd class on 15 July 2021. You can love it or hate depends on how much you like your job and how the people like you. Hated my job but loved the community and people. Hated my job as an A-Ganger, but doesn't mean i didn't learn a lot and value the experience and respect as an A-Ganger (shout out to the CS's for always giving me a bowl of nugs while on watch lmao). Now I'm going reserves so i can re-rate as an RP and coming back active. Busted my ass for 5 years now its time to take it easy for the rest and retire pushing paper lmao.
The narrator is an absolute legend lmao. Such a distinct and fitting voice for these
Outstanding training. If I didn't become a U.S. Naval Aircrewman my second choice would have been submarines but of course I'd have totally different rate. I went to aircrew school in Pensacola after boot camp which also involves a massive amount of water training. Then from Pensacola I went to AO A School in Millington, TN.
You are from my time. I went to Pensacola in the summer of 1990 then to Millington. Pensacola was the better base and better galley. Now it's all done in Pensacola.
I DONT MESS WITH THE OCEAN 🌊 .. THATS A WHOLE DIFFERENT WORLD DOWN THERE
David Goggins be like "Who's gonna carry the Sub!"
That’s the comment of the year lol
Can we see what training officers have to go through to serve on submarines?
I always knew sailors on submarines were badass, but I didn't know they went through this kind of training.
All enlisted sailors have to undergo this eight-week training program, including CS (Culinary Specialist)?
I also didn't know sailors who were initial entry could serve on submarines. I thought they need at least a few years of experience in the fleet before qualifying.
Officers go through almost the same training but with more engineering and some other things like attack training.
Everyone is a volunteer! With few exceptions everyone goes through the school.
I never spent a day assigned to a surface vessel. I joined the Navy 10 days out of high school. Went to Boot Camp, then an "A" school and then volunteered for subs and went to sub school and 8 months after High School I was assigned to my boat. Happens to a lot of people.
Lots of people wash out of sub school. The Navy only takes the top percentage of the people who apply. Once you graduate Sub School is no guarantee you will complete qualifications and earn your Dolphins. I've know people to wash out from the boats.
Qualifications means you have to learn every single system of the boat. Trace it out by hand. Be able to draw it from memory. Know how to operate it and be able to do it in the dark if necessary. You have to pass several levels of testing on each system and then be tested by a board of your fellow qualified sailors and officers. This takes about a year to achieve, more or less. Until that happens you have no free time. You stand watch, eat and sleep (maybe) and learn the boat. No movies or games until you earn your "fish"! Until you are Qualified you are known as a NUB (Non Useful Body). Once you qualify the crew breathes a sigh of relief as now you can be trusted with their lives. Up to that time yours was in their hands! Welcome to submarines.
I worked on submarines for years and never went to sub school. Nuclear operators spend too long in school to send to another sub school. You learn everything on the sub anyway.
@@Matt-Holdren You're right.
@@Matt-Holdren enlisted nukes don’t go to BESS, but officer nukes do something called Submarine Officer Basic Course (SOBC) which is collocated with BESS and shares a lot of the same curriculum.
Are ya listening? Clearly says‐ submariners. Its only for those who want to serve on subs.
Dang brings back memories didn’t expect to see this on this channel
Unfortunately we don’t do pressurised escape training in the uk navy anymore, it was good fun! We concentrate on surface abandonment now.
Sorry guys, Basic Enlisted Submarine School is NOT boot camp. Been there, done that. For me it took place AFTER boot camp but before Polaris Electronics 'A' school. Some people come to sub school from 'A' school but it is definitely NOT boot camp. Boot camp is physical fitness and generic Navy training. I do have to say that the escape tower training was fun. If the instructors don't hold on to you as you are ascending you can pop out at the top of the water pretty high.
I had no idea they had those escape suits. That makes a sub failure seem much more survivable than I previously though
if we being fr there's no chance of escape unless they're somewhat close to the surface😭
I learned how to escape a helicopter underwater back in the day, and that was terrifying enough. Submariners are a different breed - leftfield too.
I was here becasue of Titan OceanGate.
Sadly..
Wow this seems tough. Kudos to you Submariners. Thank you all for your service. God's Love and Blessings✝️💜.
I did 5 years on a years on a submarine. That was some of the worst times of my life.
2:48 classic sleeping during lectures even when you're in the front row, man it must be hella tiring
Hubby is a submariner. I don't know how he does it. I've been inside a sub and I'm always like nope! So I do appreciate the training I know my husband has and hope he never has to use it.
5:00 trying to hide their smiles in the training booth
God bless USA. Glad to have you all.

My friend had a buddy who was in the Navy and worked on a nuclear sub...he was never allowed to tell anyone where they were and hardly got to talk friends or family.
I have claustrophobia yep no ty. I appreciate the ones that are there and is going to be doing that. Thanks.
Did similar escape exercises in the Australian army for underwater helicopter evacuation training, except we were harnessed in to our seats and blindfolded then the simulator was lowered to the bottom of the pool upside down. I panicked and unfastened my harness too early the first time so I failed but was allowed to re-attempt. Hated every second of it. Would not recommend 😆
good and skilled instructors.
Who can’t pick the correct “too”: 6:50
Was an instructor at Sub school Groton CT. In early 90s. Looks like they updated the flooding chamber it was much more dangerous when I went through it.
Same here Patrick. Went through doing the early 70's. Escape Tower free ascents were from 50ft and 100ft with a Steinke Hood, Lol. The modern Navy, huh? 🤣I also recall the pressure chamber taking us to an equivalent depth of 400ft. How things change.
Yet when submarines sink, you never see people escape. You almost have to think this was a peace of mind thing more than anything.
And it is true they only train us and give this to the public as a piece of mind. But that’s only once we do this and never after
Oh yeah well because you obviously see submarines on the daily and research the crews that survived
They walk back with air breathers.
70% of the world is water. The average depth is about 3 miles (around 15000 feet). If you happen to sink in that small percentage of water that is 600 or less feet in depth the chances of survival is doable otherwise non existent. That is something we, as boat sailors, know and have excepted. A sub sinking and imploding happens so fast the human mind can not register it.
yes this drill is good peace of mind but not something you should rely on. this would only work if the submarine is near the surface since most of the time submarines will be operating at extreme depth. any explosion from an external source(torpedo, mine) would cause the whole vessel to implode violently killing everyone instantly in a fraction of a second There have been some stories of submarines being trapped on the sea floor from a partial explosion on the submarine vessel (internal explosions usually) with sailors trapped inside due to the extreme ocean pressure the escape hatch either could not be opened due to malfunction of the pressurization chamber so they could not equalize pressure so opening the hatch is physically impossible, and even if it was opening it would cause a violent Delta p situation as soon as a sliver of air is able to get through. there is also no point since you would not be able to survive the rapid ascent needed even with an oxygen tank since at that depth(which im assuming its oxygen so thats a double no since at that depth oxygen is toxic and will have u narced out your damn mind) you would 100% die from getting the bends since you are doing an extreme emergency ascend at depth you are exceeding safety ascend rates and bypass decompression stops. Its just a non survivable situation without outside assistance i.e rescue vessel
nice video!
I feel like I’m going to have a panic attack juste watching this 🥲 sooo incredibly courageous
💀
Thank you all for your service God Bless
It’s not Boot Camp. Dice trainers are for the families. Submarines spend so little time in water shallow enough to use them. And if they are operating in water shallow enough to do so, they won’t use them for other considerations. The other trainers (Fire Fighting, Flooding etc) are a blast.
You guys should do USAF helicopter training next!
Bad ass. Brave people!
Such a cool and important part of our national defense.
My grandpa was an electrician on subs ❤❤❤ active and in dock ❤ I love him so much, never got to meet him but I've heard amazing stories. He met my grandmother in Australia ❤ when he was there. My Grey uncle was also an electrician and worked on stuff he couldn't speak about. Heck when he worked on land 😂 he had absolutely no idea where he worked😂
The fact they shot this while i was there is hilarious XD i see alot of my friends showing up in this
I’m graduating A school tomorrow. Hopefully after I finish training a year from now, I can finally board a sub.
Dont trust me.
EMN3 Here. Walk up to the first nuke you see and tell him "Enjoy your time inside the Rickover". They'll think its funny.

It's been a while but I had a blast in BESS (August - October 1982) USS STONEWALL JACKSON (SSBN634)(GOLD)
Interesting, I think there’s a sub out there today that coulda used this training
but a 50 year old white man with 25+ years of professional submarine experience just isnt "inspiring". I'll take the 25 year fresh college graduate female who surfs on the weekends, she has that special connection to the sea so she's who i want 4000 meters below the sea.
Great Job Go Navy
About to try and enlist for missile maintenance on subs
My father served on SSBN 623 USS Nathan Hale.
We are currently shitting on Moulton for not knowing what a strong back is
They need to run through the drills with simulated issues and simulated injuries. Simulate blind ness or a power outage by making them go through the drill with blindnfolds on! Have them tuck on hand into their pocket and let them only use one hand while their teammate uses their other hand to help complete the seal or to pass the tar hemp back n forth.
Or do what is far more effective and just use a gas machine? And if you're so injured to only be able to use one arm, ur getting sent to the CS'S and doc for EMAT. The Marlin/tar hemo ain't that sticky btw. Also almost all pipes that REQUIRE marlin are accessible by one person to do one person's job that I have seen.
@Her Benevolence you're telling me you can not imagine any scenario where its all hands on deck, and a fire breaks out or flood, at the same moment that you have an injury like a broken arm. You telling me YOUD GO SEE THE DOCTOR/nurse?!?@?! Id assume my duties and execute them till we were safe from the danger AND THEN go visit the infirmary.... i really hope you are not an example of whats currently in our military...
Damn you, panel P-37!
It's been 42 years since I went through submarine school. It sure was different back then. The wet trainers and fire trainers were being designed and built. Those showed up in the late 80's/early 90's when I was an instructor at SUBTRAFAC San Diego.
Submarine Support Facility San Diego at Ballast Point. Every boat I road was homeported there. 😊
Y’all here from the submarine incident too?
Very dangerous Job it’s alot to remember because you have a Job on top that. Plus dealing with tight areas and stressing at times.
These people must be adrenaline junkies 😭 I could never. Respect ✊!
yall should do a video on how the Air Force Security Forces train new airmen
The escape trunks have a chart for time vs depth. It only goes to 400 ft. If deeper than that you out of luck.
It’s definitely not worth the money 😂 a sailor in my a school ended up going subs and he said the only reason he wanted to do it was because he could keep his mustache 😂 still one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met and got to be friends with. It was really cool to see this though but it makes me glad I didn’t go this route no thanks 😂 I liked being in my air conditioned space with no one bothering me
LMAO
So what'd you do?

Nuclear subs are very comfortable with AC!! Unless your doing drills or on a certain mission you LIVE comfortably! Life is easier than a surface ship once qualified! You work less hours as well!!
US Marine scared to go on board
Inside the Submarine. . Submariners are extra ordinary
People.
man 21:26 if you had a pool and a friend or family and a tube, you already know what this part is like
these are obviously the kind of people who never have to sleep
"A whole 85 dollars for everything I got, Mr. Berry Gordy?? Sign me up!"
Unfortunately submarines don’t sink at 37 feet so escaping one is not a thing. The pressure would crush you immediately and that’s if you somehow got the escape hatch to even open
The pressure chamber back then took us to a depth equivalent of 400ft as I recall.
Would love to see them cover nuke school/ prototype.
5:57 can’t even remember the name of it.
Ladies and gentlemen, the men and women protecting our beautiful nation. Round of applause. 👏
Spoken like someone who's truly accomplished something in their life.
@@chadlad8243 Apparently you have not. Shalom
Love to see a video on uk carp fishing its a billion pound business within 20 years
I did this in sub school in 1976. We did not get the pampering this kids got. We did not have this full body suite either, all we had was a stanke hood. This training is a waste of time though. If you sink in water shallow enough to make an escape, they are coming for you in a submarine rescue vehicle, if not you are dead. STSCS(SS) USN Ret.
