Why would anybody choose to serve on a submarine?
It's bad enough being on the surface and your vessel getting hit why the fuck would you want to experience that 1000ft below the waves?
It's the only part of the navy where a gay sailor can reliably find a husband.

There are some good sides to a submariner
> submarines don't roll, so you don't get seasick like a surface ship.
> You get more time on-shot compared with the surface fleet. The navy knows how much being on a sub sucks so they give you more shore time.
> Good creature comforts. Not a lot of space, but the space is as comfortable as they can make it.
> You get paid more. Compensation for the suck.
>>29405415
ahahahahaha
>>29405475
This honestly. Subs aren't as uncomfortable as the media makes it seem. They're obviously cramped, but that's to be expected of military life in general. The worst part about being on a sub is when it's surfaced though, they roll like drunken pigs in the mud.

The Navy sounds great desu
>you will never sip Margheritas with your bf while watching the sunset in the Pacific ocean
you get paid a little more. you get a nifty little pin for your uniform(dolphins). career advantage for officers. regular schedule to your cruises. beats being on a carrier, for nukes at least. you do real national defense missions instead of wars for israel.
Doesn't this look like fun to you?
>>29405762
>nukes
>you will never get to push the big red button
>>29405792
Make sure you use the 5th wheel on the right or the sub will sink :^)
>>29405793
He means nuclear-trained operators, not nuclear weapons...
>>29405287
Meh, you get taught damage control and escape training but in reality you know that you are fucked if hit, the fact we have not lost of Submarine in such a long time is kind of reassuring though
>>29406100
When did the US even use it's submarines last?
As far as I'm aware the last sub on sub combat was India vs Pakistan in the 70s.
>>29406232
>When did the US even use it's submarines last?
A few seconds ago maybe? SSN's could be considered the scout snipers of the sea, if they they not taking a shot you can be guaranteed they are looking for something or watching it.
>>29406260
I mean use as in actual battle with other vessels.
I'll hazard a guess and say a few cruise missiles have been launched?
If you're just plinking missiles at sand people thousands of miles away I guess it's not so bad.
>>29406320
>I mean use as in actual battle with other vessels.
The idea of a strong submarine force is that you deter such things, everyone knows that a modern boat can rape your face before you know it and any such actions against said boat will be after it has done its job.
honestly considered for a split second submarine service just to get myself away from all the bullshit I got to read on facebook after every new terrorist strike in EU.

Oh the hypocrisy.
>>29406320
we haven't fought anyone with a navy worth mentioning, since ww2.
>It's bad enough being on the surface and your vessel getting hit why the fuck would you want to experience that 1000ft below the waves?
Because the odds of getting hit are a lot lower down there.
>>29406541
Ah, did the poor little shitshirt feel oppressed when someone mentioned some shit his religion of choice has been doing. Did perhaps someone step on your freedom of speech with big, nasty PC boots as well by saying you where a racist prick when you where a racist prick?
Oh, but I forget. This is 4chan, where pretending to be straight outta stormfront is so cool, original and subversive. They'll never see it coming, and you'll be just like all the cool kids.
>>29406661
I'm guessing you're a muslim by the amount of butthurt you put into this post.
Either say bad things about every religion or none of them.

Bullshit, we share in the navy.
>>29405287
Have you ever tried singing "Yellow Submarine" while washing the decks of a frigate?
Let's just say you wouldn't be here to ask that question if not for a passing boat transporting Indonesian sex-slaves.
>>29406782
>It works for Ze Jooz
They actually have quantifiable ethnic groups though.

>Sephardic
A Pole and a polish jew are pretty easy to tell apart.
Whereas a christian Serb and muslim Bosniak are pretty much indistinguishable. (inb4 butthurt)

How is that worse? Can you not go on top every now and again and make phone calls and see the sky?
>>29405792
Why would anyone let mc escher design a sub?
>>29406542
Outside the US I don't even think there's anyone with a Navy worth mentioning anymore, allies included.

>good pay, comfy bases, good community unlike surface ships, command is chill, better food than other ships
what's not to like?
If I were to become a submariner, are there any interesting jobs on board? I work with electronics and circuits, so I would love to do something like that. Also, does everyone have one specific job that they do or do they rotate a couple of different tasks?
>>29408606
From what I've heard, you have a specific role (weapon operator. electrician, mechanic. chef, ect) but everyone also shares and pitches in everywhere.
>>29405287
Because it's as close to being on a spaceship as I'll ever get
Because surfacefags are retarded.
Im already in the navy and therefore gay. May as well be a faggot who is good at his job.
>>29408606
Ever desired to be a professional painter and janitor in between bouts of doing your real job the navy paid half a million dollars and 2 years of your life for?
Engineering is right for you!
>>29406320
Do you know how expensive a modern, nuclear sub is?
Who the fuck do you think we've been at war with for the past 30+ years?

Is there a Comedic Relief role?

Here in Australia we had the 'I'll ride with you' thing trending AS THE FUCKING ATTACK IN SYDNEY WAS HAPPENING. I don't fucking care that some girl on a bus with a headscarf on felt awkward, there's some motherfucker pointing a shotgun at a room full of hostages while putting an Islamic flag in the window.
>Submarine
>Getting hit
India pls go.
>>29406541
The fuck does this have to do with submarine duty?
>>29406526
The problem is that you are barely on sea.
>>29406100
What type subs did you serve on?
>>29407644
USAF Missiliers have a pretty shitty job, the 24 hour alerts suck, but not as bad as the really shitty culture and constant testing. At least Sub boys are actually working when they're at sea, Missile guys are caught in a world of bullshit the second they go to tech school.

Read the fucking thread.
>>29411156
>Anon just wants to get away from terrorist attacks
>Another anon turns the discussion into another Islam-related circlejerk, even though the thread topic had nothing to do with it
Do you faggots just find any excuse to circlejerk about Islam on the Internet? Petty. Actually do something. Pick some random Muslim and harass or assault him. Throw bricks at Muslim businesses. Or better yet, enlist so Trump can ship you out to slaughter all sandnigs in Sandnigistan.
>>29411190
That's assuming Trump wins. Shitposting and talking about how terrible Islam is to people who don't already know is a good way to help get him elected.
>>29411190

A couple of years ago my ideas were completely polarized and I used words like 'Islamaphobic' I'm just a shepherd wanting to lead others to the light.

We'll be like ISIS, but for a good cause. And if more of us chip in it would be harder for every one of us to get caught. Step up, /k/.
>>29411235
You're just another idiot letting shekelstein distract you from how your country and everyone you know is being raped by letting them distract you with another war on x. What's the war on this time Uncle Sam? Communism? Drugs? Poverty? No this time it's terrorism! Let's use methods like military power, regime change , and destabilization, that will totally work to reduce terrorism, look how we're doing so far, Afghanistan, Yemen, Libya, Iraq, all totally 100% certified terror free!
>>29405287
Pride in one's nation, faggot
>>29407470
Have any submariners here done troll singing like in Hunt for Red October? I thought it'd be funny to do a tour in the SCS and sing "Yellow Submarine" to whatever Asian boats happened to be in the area.
>>29411109
>What type subs did you serve on?
Trafalgar class boats, I have toured the Swiftsure, Vanguard and Astute class but never been to sea on any of them.
> or the sub will sink
Isn't that what subs are supposed to do?
>>29407501
Bosniaks tend to have more cum on their faces.
So where does the "navy is gay, it gets super-gay in the subs" thing come from. I'd like some examples
>>29405415
>>29411595
Simple logic. The normal navy is gay. The compressed underwater hardcore navy is thusly gayer.
>>29411580
Ocean gets to over a thousand atmospheres of pressure, military subs arent designed for that shit.
