At random: Interests in submarines extends to royalty and presidents. The King of England and the King and Queen of Spain are among those who have made submerged cruises in submarines. As a result of a trip in an early United States submarine, President "Teddy" Roosevelt ordered extra compensation for personnel serving in the "Silent Service." President Harry Truman made a 440 foot dive in a captured German submarine. The first President to cruise aboard a nuclear submarine was President Eisenhower who rode the USS SEAWOLF out of Newport, Rhode Island on September 26, 1957.

Was just watching the Military channel on TV, They have a program called around the services, They showed a clip of a sailor in Afganistan , I didnt quite catch his name, sounded like PO1 Deets, just showed him from the shoulder up and the camera hovered just above his breast pocket, and HE was wearing a set of silver dolphins. anyone else see it?

Just caught a glimpse and did not hear the name, but a good number of boat sailors are going to both places, in a large number of capacities. We have one here that has spoken to South Sound and Seattle (I think) about his service over there. And unlike Vietnam this time they will be able to at least tell their story. But lets not go there.
