Thanks for the great little tour. I was not aware of the fact that most countries did not have refrigeration on their subs. Before the Gato class, did U.S. subs have refrigeration? I think Dr. P. Dantic needs to have a class on ice cube use, I bet there are thousands of younger viewers that have not used those old metal ice trays, or even the plastic ones for that matter.

[@klsc8510]

First, there is a piece missing from the ice cube tray. Younger viewers would need lessons on the rotary dial telephone and manual typewriters!

@@dfirth224 My parents have a pair of those, they have a noticeable 2-piece spine for the ice cube dividers to transfer motion from the handle to the ribs that break the cubes apart. these trays are different, I think that feature on the end has something to do with breaking the cubes loose.

On LPD11 our refers were on the 4th deck below our engineering berthing (3 deck) compartment. In 1974 on a Med cruise we picked up a floating dead fisherman, the deck guys loaded him in a body bag & brought him down thru our compartment to the freezer. A couple of days later we pulled into port and they took a very frozen dead guy out of the freezer and turned him over to the authorities.

Dick O'Kane fell through an open hatch while doing an inspection tour on TANG, and badly injured his ankle and foot. Sadly, it was on TANGs last patrol, and consequently did not heal properly as shortly afterwards the circular run of that fateful torpedo took her down, and threw him off the bridge, after which he was captured...

[@johnslaughter5475]

Fortunately for me I never had to go down into Ranger's reefers when we were taking on food. (Thanks to the Navy for developing the refrigerated stores ships that brought fresh food out to us.) Every time we took on food stores I was working on the hangar deck, or the flight deck during my first cruise.) I knew some guys who had to stow the food in the reefers. Break out the foul weather gear. But, ours were big enough to almost put Cod into them. Of course, we were serving something like 17,000 meals a day. The galley was open 23 hours a day. Closed from 0100-0200 for cleaning. I have a number of books on WWII submarine warfare. There was a section that dealt with stowing of food. It was an art. Every spare cubic inch on the boat, and there wasn't much, was used to stow food. The cooks had to be careful about how they stowed it, and that includes in the reefers. They couldn't just stow all the steaks first, hamburger next, and so on. If they did, the crew would have the same thing day after day until they had finished what was on top. The cooks actually planned out the meals for the entire deployment before beginning stowing it away.

[@steveschulte8696]

I remember packing milk onto an freight elevator to strike down to the reefer decks. We packed the elevator to its max capacity ant then sent it down off the aft mess deck level. (On the Ranger in 1979). on the Bainbridge, i stood at the bottom of one of the ladders going down from the main deck, and caught meat boxes all morning and part of the afternoon. There was another ladder going down to the reefer deck itself. Meat boxes are about 50 to 55 pounds each. I was sore afterwards. On a sub like the Cod. the provisions came down vertically and then got passed to the storeroom. The messman in the chill box there had only to lift it through the hatch and onto the deck. You can see some of the ways they prevented the frozen meat from shifting underway. And there were no bottles of Freon and other gas cylinders littering the inside of the freezer.

[@johnslaughter5475]

@@steveschulte8696 I was on the hangar deck one time putting the boxes of food on the rollers down to the mess decks. I caught my finger on the steel band. I didn't see anything when I looked at it, so I kept working. Then, I noticed some dark spots appearing on the deck under my hand. I went below in white light and found I'd cut my finger pretty bad. The red light in the hangar bay was exactly the color of blood.

[@johnslaughter5475]

@@henrycarlson7514 The forward mess decks were not used for eating while I was aboard. Weapons would put all of the bombs for a strike together, less the fuses, and load them on the bomb carts. That was all we had on the forward mess decks. I understand that they did use the forward galley to prepare rations for all of the forward GQ stations. I couldn't attest to this of my own knowledge. My S-7 berthing was just off the forward mess decks. Every time I'd come up from my compartment I'd see nothing but bomb carts all over the place. It was just empty when we weren't on the line.

That articulated air duct in the officers refrigerator is just what I needed in about 1974. I was supply PO for the sheet metal shop on the sub tender USS Simon Lake. A boomer had sent us a work order for a new one of those elbows. I went to Engineering and looked up the specification and found that they were shipyard built with no part number I could order. Our shop did not have the tools to make a new one so the sub went without. How could a sub lose a ventilation elbow?

[@ghost307]

Thank you for the excellent tour of a rarely seen area of the boat. When the sub was submerged did they switch off the refrigeration to conserve battery power?

[@robertporterfield9578]

Nice presentation! When I was mess cooking (1960) we had to periodically defrost the freezer..This involved pulling all the frozen food out, putting it on the tables above, running heated refrigerant through the freezer coils t o melt the accumulated ice and frost, drying down the interior, reloading all the frozen food from the crew's dinette and restarting the refrigeration cycle. This was done every month to six weeks as I remember and was quite a job. In WWII I guess the relief crew had this task, but by then most of the frozen items had probably been depleted.

[@paulfarace9595]

From my reading, on the surface almost everywhere inside. No smoking outside at night. The after gun mount on the island was refered to as the cigarette deck.

Another tidbit from the last war patrol, in 1945, of the USS Finback, SS230, courtesy of my dad, a quartermaster. Finback was in stormy weather for a week, and they hadn't been able to get a star sight. So they didn't know exactly where they were. When the sky cleared, Finback found herself way too close to the mouth of the Yangtze river. She was spotted, and depth charged throughly. The depth charging drove her into the mud. She freed herself, the captain said, "Knock the governors off and let's go!" So they did. Eluded the sub chasers, repaired their damage, checked in at Guam (Have to verify the sequence of events here; not sure about this). Some hidden damage to the refrigerators from the depth charging revealed itself as Finback made for Midway. The crew took rotting meat out, and went fishing. They caught a few sharks. They were already low on food, and for the last ten days they ate nothing but canned fruit and baked shark. My dad could never look canned fruit in the eye again.

Would have liked to have seen the refrigeration compressor and learned a little about how much electrical power was required to drive the refrigeration unit. Also left unanswered was that apparently there was no insulation between the pressure hull and the freezer? That would mean that the sea water on the other side of the hull had a enormous effect of warming the steel and causing the reefer to run far more than necessary.

[@paulfarace9595]

This isn't an electrical engineering program. Show folks areas not available to visit is the goal. The drive and compressor will be shown when we visit the pump room. And I didn't say there wasn't insulation between the hull and reefer. Just that the reefer followed the hul curvature
