I was a training NCO for a National Guard FA firing battery. No women. I went to a school one time and a guy from Missouri who had a similar job to mine but with an MP company told me that the two biggest problems he had in his unit, I didn’t have either one: women and, errr, “minorities”. Well, he didn’t exactly say “minorities” but you can use your imagination.

This could make ‘hot racking’ a lot more interesting!
Note: Hot racking is the practice of having 3 sailors share two bunks (racks). It works because one of the 3 is always on duty. It is necessary (at least on older boats) because there are more crew than bunks.

Women should NOT be on subs as they are usually full of seamen

They already do Navair. Subs are more than a little different.

I'm sure that if Senator Kennedy were still alive he would co-sponsor that bill with Senator Dodd. Forty years ago, Teddy served briefly in an undersea command off the coast of Martha's Vinyard.

Oh Hell, why not just hire a dozen prostitutes and put them in special quarters on a sub. That would satisfy everyone but NOW.

Operation Petticoat was a great comedy flick. “In confusion there is Profit!” TC and CG had some great lines in that one.

Subs are a tough nut. Morale is very important. I honestly don’t think I’d want to see the male/female dynamic at work in these subs.
Of course career opportunities are every so much more important than military preparedness and national security, so we can look for this in days...

Why dont we go to unmanned Subs and staff them with Bunny Rabbits? After each Sub Mission we could feed all of China with the bumper crop of Bunnys coming off the Sub prior to the arrival of the next crew? This idea is Bonkers!

I wonder how that would work? They can barely stuff the food on board for those long trips... how are they going to find space for women washrooms, and sleeping quarters? Some of the beds allow only inches, where boobs won’t fit.

Well, we have love boats on the sea might as well have them underwater.
Pathetic.
They even have naval uniforms for pregnant sailors.
