Fire inside a sub is the scariest thing imaginable. zero visibility, no where to hide.

True.

However, from the engineering side, We were always most terrified of a steam line rupture or feed header rupture.

No, I take that back. Most nuclear trained guys on subs would say they’re most scared of a feed header rupture casualty. Without question.

Feed header rupture:
Instantly kill 3 watchstanders by scalding to death? Check.

Fires? Check.

Loss of propulsion in a short time? (no propulsion and the sub sinks) Check.

Reactor meltdown? (if feed rupture isn’t isolated quick enough) Check.

We hated running that drill because of how scared shitless it had us.

What better way to train your sailors than to actually light the sub on fire?

In America, Navy trains sailors to handle fire.

In Soviet Russia, Navy trains fire to handle sailors.

No way this wasn't planned. The average Russian doesn't take a dump without a plan.

CNN: Russia submarine fire is sign that Trump-Russia collusion investigation is really heating up. Expect Trump to blame it on fired staffers.
