Last WEEK? Off to read the link. This was not the first time for the Russians/Soviets. I read a book about another one, this makes the third or more occasion of this?

Averted a nuclear meltdown?

No doubt they were brave.

I wonder why so many officers were on the sub...

This is why I think a lot of people really aren't afraid of Russian Military or their propaganda. This shouldn't be happening.

This was no simple nuclear meltdown. There was an attempted false flag attack on that submarine. It was supposed to fire its nuclear payload and start WWIII. Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed and war was averted. They sacrificed their lives to save hundreds of millions of lives.

Reading between the lines, they must have encountered one of those undersea alien craft our Navy has been seeing.

"Comrade Commander, why is our nuclear submarine on fire?"

"Because this is Russia."

the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one.

as with most governments, you only hear about these things rarely because for everyone that is public knowledge there are potentially dozens that they were able to keep secret.
