The Midshipmen should be glad that they’re not Coasties.

The US Coast Guard Academy is on the Banks of the Thames in New London, CT. On hot summer nights, Coast Guard cadets would take their dates to the riverbank to watch the Submarine races (and other nocturnal activities).

Meanwhile, across the river, at the Sub Base in Groton, CT, the submarines were watching back. Many of the boats had night vision periscopes, with closed circuit televisions, so the entire duty section could enjoy the show.
