"Great for anyone in the Navy, or with family members who were in the Navy on Submariners (those people are called Submariners mar-in-ers, not marine-ers). It taught me quite a bit about what we put those guys through."
"Loaned to me by one of the sailors involved. I'm glad to have known him and glad for those who continue to protect my family without fanfare or recognition."
