As theleansubmariner approaches 500 posts, I thought it fitting to post another great video of the boats that made up much of my career as well as others in the early days of nuclear Cold War submarines.
The 41 for Freedom boats represented a large part of a concerted effort to offer a countermeasure to Soviet intentions.
God Bless all of the men who served in this historic endeavor. You truly made a difference!
41 for Freedom won the Cold War with Russia without firing a shot — missile or torpedo.
diesel boats forever
I served aboard the USS Kamehameha (SSBN 642 – Gold Crew) 1972-1975 out of Rota, Spain. Enjoyed seeing the videos. It brought back some great memories.
I just looked at this site for the first time. I would like to find an original print of the 41 For Freedom Patches poster that I saw today. I would like to make quality copies if possible.
