This post is actually a continuation of the revious post.  So, if you have not read the previous post, please do so now.  I'll wait.

OK, the last ship we visited was the USS Clamagore, SS-343.  The ship provided a great insight into the conditions under which submariners lived and worked. 

And those conditions are illustrated in this photo of the aft torpedo room.

You can see a green torpedo on the lower torpedo rack.  The upper rack is empty.  But notice above that empty torpedo rack.. the light green colored items are mattresses on the crew bunks.  Yep, you got to sleep right above the torpedoes.  Sweet dreams!

Control Station, USS Clamagore
A BLESSED THANKSGIVING TO ALL!!
