Keeping the blogosphere posted on the goings on of the world of submarines since late 2004... and mocking and belittling general foolishness wherever it may be found. Idaho's first and foremost submarine blog. (If you don't like something on this blog, please E-mail me; don't call me at home.)
G-man, an old Dolphin Sailor, has quite a few posts on the last week's "retirement" of USS Dolphin (AGSS 555). And from today's Pacific Daily News, it looks like we have official word from the Navy that USS Buffalo (SSN 715) will be heading to Guam next spring to bring that base back up to three SSNs.

There are two things going on with the Dolphin - one is that some of the crew have a running bet on how many torpedos it will take to sink her - and the other is that some of the old salts want the Dolphin made into a museum piece.

First boat going to first upkeep port. Damn how I hated that place. But someone's got to do it...
