Look out Bogey! Cods will be asking you what you've done about it and whether or not it's our submarine.

Just kidding. She's nowhere near consistent.

and you think I follow you around..

Shocked

some mothers do av em!

I'd sincerely like to know why you haven't asked Bogey what he expects us to do about it.

well some of us feel a great deal of sympathy for not only the sailors but all their loved ones who would be in the excruciating world of the unknown..... Sad

then again a few of us more concerned with their own welfare it appears.

not one word about this appalling situation..not ONE WORD..

3 posts and they have not a thing to do with this topic..

do you think submariners feel PAIN?....
Angry

Yeah Cods but in any thread i start, demand to know what i think thing people can do about it.

I would like to know what you think Bogey expects us to do about these poor unfortunate souls.

Is it a tough question?

no way would I ever go one the subbies have my utter respect and admiration...no way jose!..

the thought of slow suffocation sends shivers through me.......

It gets incredibly cold down there too as they're waiting to suffocate slowly. Cyanide pills set into every submariner's wisdom tooth is the answer. Or a capsule of Nembutal.

Submariners get a lot more pay than ordinary surface sailors.

it would take a special kind of person I would think..

like old time coal miners....I could not do it.... Sad

this is horrible just horrible...

waiting! Cry

Couldn't think of anything worse to be honest 😢

Battery fire 8 days ago. Me think it's a recovery, rather than a rescue.

It just illustrates how pathetic the submarine design is for dealing with situations of emergency like this.

Days would have been saved if there was a simple device that is released from the hull of the submarine that then shoots up to the surface from where it transmits a signal.

They have both, Herbie.

The German Type 209 Class variant created for India, the Shishumar class submarine has an escape pod under it's weather deck. No other submarines have them. All submarines have buoys which can be released by the crew and float to the surface - if they have time and if the release mechanism is working properly. They have had them since the 1930s in the Royal Navy and since WWII in NATO navies.

However, accidents underwater can be sudden and catastrophic. HMS Affray, an "A-class" submarine was lost in 1951. Tragically, her buoy was wired shut, preventing it's release because it had come loose earlier. I'd recommend you read the Wikipedia entry on her loss. It makes sobering reading.

Will do, Brian.

I quite agree. It is absolutely the stuff of nightmares. I hope for rescue for these poor unfortunate souls.

It's just that Cods trols every thread i start with demands on me of what i expect people to do about it.

She doesn't seem to do it to anyone else.

I'm just curious as to why.

The way you fvvken whinge, you'd have been 'shot out of a torpedo tube' well before the sub had problems.........

given that 99.9 percent of your comments are you simply bitching about members you don't like, I'm not sure you're in any real position to comment.
