My second cousin (mother’s first), commanded three submarines in WWII. Sank about 55K tons. His last command was the SS Cutlass, he was its first commander. The SS Cutlass is still in service, in the South Korean navy. Just got a 19M refit in 2019, making it the oldest boat still in service. Mark Felton has a video about this boat.

An American Sub of that era could remain submerged for over 24 hours. The major limiting factor was battery life, as a sub has to keep moving even slowly to maintain a specific depth. I believe the upper limit of their depth was about 400 feet. A U-Boat could approach 900 feet and survive.

So it is kind of funny a couple generations removed. But I was in the Navy for quite while and I did several deployments. Even as a young man 19 or 20 years old when the ship would come in to San Diego, there would be a little tent set up, for the men who had babies they had not met. Whether or not I had a girlfriend I would go by that tent and some of the men I knew and they would show me their babies and I would cry my eyes out. As I got older 23 I decided that I couldn’t do any long-term Deployment and I inform the Navy that who thought it was pretty funny but they kept me in for while and I eventually got out and had my children and I can say this that I never spent more than five days away from my children during their entire growing up. I always have quite an admiration for people that can do 20 years the amount of sacrifices they make more than count for any money they ever have received.

During WWII and for Americans... every patrol WAS PERSONAL! Unlike the upturned nosed admirals of the British Navy... the United States Navy Admirals left the sub missions to be at Captains discretion pending on type of patrol. In the last year of the war the Admiralty unleashed the subs to target anything and everything that was Japanese. The Brits were notoriously known for holding the hand of ship captains so they don't "accidentally" piss someone off. Lol. That kind of leadership is why You Brits NEEDED the United States. You can't even lead your fleet during war without handcuffing those that doing the killing. The Brits would arrest a good captain rather than expecting that captain to deal death AS HE SEEN FIT. The Hood was the cost of British admiralty hypocrisy.
