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.

USNA-34 USMA-0...even though I am happy Navy won, I do have a bit of a place in my heart for the Cadets...our niece, Lizzie, the one who passed away earlier this year, worked at the Academy for almost 10 years in the Cadet Mess as the liason between the contractors (kitchen staff) and Army...and the Cadets were "her boys", especially the football team. She was like the "mother hen"...looked out for all of them and made sure they had enough on their plates, and was concerned for them as human beings, as well. They all knew that they could always "talk" to Lizzie.
