Heads will roll in high places over that, as well they should.Unless this guy was bipolar, such news is entirely unacceptable. The CO in the middle whose command tragically suffered from the rudder gear mishap is the only one we as a submarine force have been able to take clear measures with to prevent a reoccurence. He's dead by his own doing and that's pretty final. To clarify, please don't read "couple" as "two", and I suspect she's confused anyway...if the gold crew left in early March, it doesn't seem to make sense that it would go out again with the same crew for such a short time under the circumstances. End of story. I regret that some of Will's family and friends (including myself) discovered this blog and read the remarks made by people who did not even know Will. All they mean is that you completed the qual card, passed a board, and the CO "said ok, here's your dolphins". It is certain that some of his shipmnates will. In the civilian world we are required by law to report child abuse. I won’t get into the report, because it has been 5 years and I may give incorrect findings. I was on a 637, which I'm sure had less room down in that gear than a T-hull, but I still can't imagine anyone, let alone a qualified auxiliaryman being stupid enough to crawl down there while the ship is underway, with the rams, and the rotating propulsion shaft in near proximity. Sailor, rest your oar. Anon don't rush to change your will tonight. Nebraska was delivered to the U.S. Navy on 18 June 1993 and commissioned on 10 July 1993.

My son is on the boat right now and I know there is a lot of pain and sorrow for him and the rest of the sailors. Talk about a lack of OpSec, we have non-submariner family types posting deployment dates, and scolding us to boot. He was a TM and it was, indeed, self-inflicted. Your one-stop shop for official U.S. Navy news and information.

What I took from him, was all his life, he had never been told it was ok to fail something. management. how sad to lose another young sailor. For us, his shipmates and friends who knew he was having problems and chose not to speak up, what does that make us? So let's move on to other things....field day anyone? Let the guy go in peace and think "But for the grace of God, there go I". I'm so sorry this happened. Oh, that explains it. There can now be little doubt whether psych screening for submarine volunteers has been kept updated rather than marginalized for the sake of quota.
