Odds of living were not good. It would suck for that to be your final image and resting place.

I've worked on a modern Semi Submersible that had a pump room that looked like that.

Looks like they have dialed in a NW heading at 290 with an upward lilt.

Seems simple enough

Submariner service was tough but valuable duty.

That's what sunk the Lusitana.

Something that cost 1/1000th and with 1/30th the crew.

At least those Germans knew better than rising stem valves.

Thanks for posting, that's crazy. I'm sure plenty of training is the answer, but it seems like it would be hard as frick to know what's going on.

You're a better man than me if you are picking of the stopper style of these valves.

I would rather them be stem valves if I was the operator. At least I could take a quick glance and know which ones were open and closed!
