At random: The USS SKATE (SSN 578) was the first vessel ever to surface at the North Pole, when on March 17, 1959 she surfaced there to conduct memorial services for the renowned Arctic explorer Sir Hubert Wilkins.

at Celtic Festivals. I saw a guy with gold dolphins on his ballcap while we were performing so after we finished our concert I walked over and introduced myself to him. Turns out he was the Engineer on the Will Rogers (1975) and later the Von Steuben.
His name is Mike Ballard and I tried recruiting him into Escolar Base. He told me he would look into it and we know submarine sailor never lie; especially officers.
We had a good talk; seems like a nice guy.
