She is the longest serving submarine in US Navy history. She performed strategic deterrence patrols in the Pacific for 21 years, then in November 2003, she entered Puget Sound Naval Shipyard to undergo a mid-life reactor refueling and a complete reconfiguration. Over roughly three years, she was transformed from a nuclear deterrent platform into a Special Forces Clandestine Command Center with dual Dry Deck Shelter capability & ability to launch a 154 Tomahawk salvo in 6 minutes. She officially returned to the active fleet as an SSGN in February 2006. She was my home for many years & where I earned my dolphins. USS Ohio (SSBN/SSGN-726) 🇺🇸 𝘍𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 & 𝘍𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵

Open ocean submarine transfers are no joke. I did one on Ohio in the 90s in this exact area. This is a September 2009 MEDEVAC: a Bangor-based Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine getting help from an Air Station Astoria USCG MH-60. The sailor was flown to OHSU in Portland.

40 years ago today: a collision occurred between USS Georgia (SSBN-729) & harbor tug USS Secota (YTM-415). The entire incident caught on video, which every submariner since has watched as part of lessons learned training, the unfortunate comment about the mail becoming infamous. Georgia had just completed a personnel transfer approximately 3nm south of Midway when USS Secota lost power. The powerless 100-foot tug became entangled with the boomer's stern plane while the boat's screw was still turning, causing the tug to quickly flood & sink. While ten crewmen were rescued, two tragically lost their lives. USS Georgia suffered only minor damage to its stern plane & returned to port for repairs.

"but Dad, how did you isolate the linear accelerometers from the submarine's angular motion?" "well son, the specifics are classified. but check out the head stabilization the American Kestrel uses to isolates their eyes from their motion in flight to stay focused on prey."
