      Hey Bill, I recently found your “Submarine Sea Stories” on Spotify. You have become one of my new best friends on my commute! I am a former STS2 on diesel boats as well as fast attacks. I was actually shipmates with Mike Fieser (eps. 31).
      I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed your podcasts. Keep up the good work!

      Bill,

      Came upon your Submarine Sea Story podcast a while back. Great job!

      I was an IC nuke (they don’t have them anymore) from 74-80, onboard the Seawolf 575. I’d bet you’d agree that it’s hard to believe the important stuff we did back then as very young men.

      Thanks again for your podcast. Brings back many memories, and those experiences led me to a successful and happy life.

      The Mike Fieser interview(episode31) reminds me how much I’ve forgotten. It was fun to rekindle hidden memories I especially
      enjoyed the this episode because it centered on
      those thing familiar to ET’s and EM’s.

      Hi Bill,

      Really enjoy submarine sea stories. Was wondering if they’ll ever be back? I think they are personal, interesting and so entertaining. Hoping they’ll make a return some day.

      Hope you are well!!

      Bill I love your sea stories podcast and hope you are able to continue doing them. There’s a semi famous ex sonar operator named Aaron ‘Jive Turkey’ Amick who I think would be great for your show. He already has a popular YouTube channel where he show cases basic submarine tactics and talks about sonar in general (nothing classified).

      Good afternoon Bill,
      I have always been interested in submarines in particular World War II submarines.
      I would love to hear stories from World War II veterans of submarines. Maybe this could add to your collection, you do a wonderful job of the submarine stories and I’m looking for more.
      Thank you.

      I’ve been enjoying your podcasts — they bring back memories of my 4 years as a nuke EM1(SS) on the USS Permit SSN594. Interesting note: the Permit was a stand-in for the Red October for the drydock shot.

      I served on the Permit 1973-1977. AEA, Throttleman, EPCP, EWS, AEF, COW.

      Interesting stories come to mind… flooding at test depth, first time to test depth & many more.

      Just read your blog post on Chief’s from the old Blue Jackets Manual. BZ again.
      As a naval history researcher maybe you can help me verify a quote I read years ago, purportedly from the old Watch Officers Guide from the pre-UCMJ Rocks and Shoals days.
      Words to the effect “Sailors are sly, cunning and bear watching at ll times.”

      We had a conversation before your Pearl Harbor presentation in McKeesport last December. I told you I was an engineer for Westinghouse and while at Groton CT had the experience of walking under the George Washington while it was in dry dock. Also, while at NEU Millstone nuclear power plant in Waterford CT, I saw the Skipjack displayed alongside the road I was traveling. My mistake- it was the Albacore. It is in Albacore Park located at 569 Submarine Way in Portsmouth, New Hampshire 03801.

      Bill,
      I love your show. I am a submariner, STS1, 20 years, 1997-2017. I was on 4 submarines, shore duty in San Diego and Trident Training Facility, Bangor in Washington state. I now live in Southern New Mexico, as far from the ocean and sailors as possible. I actually now realize how much I miss the bubblehead brotherhood. I love listening to your show. We may have been separated by nearly 2 decades in service, but I can still relate to so many tales.

      Hi Bill –
      I’m a new subscriber to your Sub Podcast, and I enjoy the details presented in the various stories. Like anything in this world, there are fleeting moments of excitement or even terror, followed by endless hours or days of pure, absolute boredom. As a layperson, I find some of the “backstories” just as interesting as the more robust actions covered – because these simple backstories bring an otherwise mysterious world, into better focus. We’re reminded that the activities that got you through the mundane, made you a person just like the rest of us.
      I am close to being a contemporary of yours; I graduated HS in 1983 – and while I never served in any branch, my high school job helped shape my life, for which I will be ever grateful to those who DID serve. I was a tour guide on a Gato Class submarine which used to be an attraction in Chicago IL – The USS Silversides S.S 236. For the first few weeks, it was just a job for a snot-nosed kid. But as I met former crew, and other service members (of all branches) and learned their stories, that boat – and the history it represented and the opportunities it brought me – became quite profound. My time in that role clearly pales in comparison to anything you, and your mates went through. But for me, it was an all-to-short snapshot in time, which screwed my head on just a bit tighter and set me on a far better path in this world, for which I will ever be grateful. I offer my utmost respect to the individuals – past and present – and future – who built those boats, and who sailed on them. My heartfelt Thanks.
