I served on an old destroyer and never got in a sub. However, I hear these Seawolf boats need a lot of repair. What do you guys hear?

Really the only one. The other two are expendable for parts to keep JC underway. It’s the spec ops boat.

The USS Jimmy Carter will have screen doors on the lower deck’s outer hull for quick escape in case of emergency.
Not to be outdone, Biden is already asking for his vessel’s to have explosive hatches

There are currently nine aircraft carriers named for former presidents of the United States, while a tenth is now under construction.
Off the subject, but this has been a truly detrimental trend of the 20th century - the deification of the American 'little emperors'. It started with coinage and currency, and that's where it should start ending.

It has an emergency submergence capability for when it’s attacked by rabbits.

I guess I’m just a grumpy old guy. But I don’t think ships, buildings, etc. should be named after living persons. And enough of this president-worshiping anyway. Name ships after states, cities, famous battles, war heroes, etc.

Reports indicate that the submarine will be retro fit by removing the conning tower and all control surfaces. Two enormous DC power cells will be placed, to accompany a huge vibration unit that will be powered by the cells. These changes commemorate what Carter did to America while in orifice.

Carriers shouldn’t be named after presidents. It’s supposed to be revolutionary war battles. We broke that in WWII because we built so many. Now they have taken over.

Oh good God. I didn’t know they named a sub for this loser.
The indignities showered on us who have been connected to these boats.

I'm mostly a carrier guy. You should see what they look like after a 9 month deployment.
I did do one deployment on Ike back in '07. On our last port call in the Fifth Fleet, we pulled in to Jebel Ali, Dubai. They kicked everyone except duty section off the ship and brought in an army of Bengali laborers who spray painted the entire ship from the top of the island down to the waterline in about 3 days.
This way we were at least pretty when we returned home (even if everything that needed to work was was by now broke).
