Water is a powerful thing. Our sub went to sea and we could not close the upper weapons shipping hatch due to ruff seas. We had a diver washed over but recovered and a chief had two lines hooked together. He was going down the side of the sail and a wave took him off the ladder. The next wave came by and as the water receded, he was hanging back on the ladder.

"Submarining is still a hazardous profession, even for professional submariners."
Do they have a high rate of death and serious injury compared to what we generally consider hazardous jobs?

Our entire military command is a gutless, politically correct joke.
