USS Toledo

[@safeysmith6720]

When you go to sleep at night, remember these guys and girls are out there patrolling the waters, keeping you a little bit safer.

[@semco72057]

The people aboard the submarines have a different lifestyle than those on the surface ships, and do make use of all the area of their ships to do as much work, pleasure, and physical fitness as well. I first wanted to go into the Navy, but was glad later on that I ended up in the Air Force. I still appreciate how those in the Navy adapted to their work environment.

Up we go . . . into the wild blue yonder . . . flying high, into the sky . . .

[@williambraval8523]

Navy . First job . Watch. Thanks guys for your service.

[@ramsoncole481]

Back in my Navy days, you wrote a letter home, and got a response about a month later. The Greyhound was a welcome sight indeed on the carrier.

[@HvyMetal4Ever]

Better to wait on the greyhound than to be the guy on mail buoy watch .

[@ramsoncole4605]

@@HvyMetal4Ever Yeah, when we would be on prop wash duty, we used to have to bring the mail buoy guy a slider.

[@larrywiggins672]

Wow .....thank all that have served in the Navy ...

[@USSTOLEDOSSN769]

@v8subie My God does this bring back some memories! The airport in Rome. The short flight across the Tyrrhenian Sea. Catania. Mount Etna. Sigonella Naval Air Station. A long drive through the beautiful countryside of Sicily. And finally, aboard the USS Toledo SSN 769. Hot Damn! I'll never forget those 10 days in La Maddalena. That was over 13 years ago.

[@richgg2]

Oh the Sea is so great and my ship is so small.

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

That's one advantage of the old diesels, going topside for watch.

[@dentonsbackyardshow1013]

Great video . Hope all is well .

[@energyasylum997]

HOLY TOLEDO!

[@chazzlucas6208]

THIS WAS A GREAT VIDEO .... THIS NEWS TEAM DID A WAY BETTER JOB THAN NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC .... FOR REAL I WISH IT WAS LONGER

[@puterausman7682]

2 billion dollar for this sub equal to a B-2 bomber..it make this sub look low tech for the price. But still a dangerous weapon.

[@Kane-ib5sn]

what does Canada have? - we have the 'Victoria class'...a bunch of old, used diesel electrics...!

[@franktoledo6342]

Don't Mess with the Toledo.

[@川上巧]

最新のテクノロジーが、詰まっていますね。

[@DynamicMentalFitness]

Awesome. Go USS Toledo!

[@vigidriver6281]

In my days, Submarines were called Boats not Ships as this Skipper called his Boat. I hate Political Correctness especially in the Military.

[@WoWUndad]

Dont be crying about correct definitions too hard

[@SaltiDawg2008]

Don't be a moron. Submariners use both the term "ship" and also "boat" to refer to a submarine usage. I servd on two diesel boats and three SSNs. Some correct usage on ALL of those five boats was: "Rig *Ship* For Dive"; "Two inches pressure in the *boat* " *s/ Retired 24 Year US Navy Submariner - USNA Class of 1965 - Former Enlisted Man*

[@jimsonbrown9768]

Why does it take two people to drive the sub? Wouldn't a single control like an aircraft yoke work to control the dive planes and rudder? Or even a simple joystick since it's all hydraulic powered anyway.

[@SaltiDawg2008]

Redundancy for safety. Lose hydraulics and one man could not manage.

[@nelson3495]

Much respect but I think I could only take two weeks of that before they would have to launch me up to the surface.

[@barbcoleus]

Awesome!

[@giuseppegranatiero]

So this is the submarine that is supposed to have collided with the russian Kursk in August 2000, isn't it?

[@pueblobeek]

It didn't

[@SaltiDawg2008]

Troll!

[@safeysmith6720]

He’s not trolling, he’s being sarcastic. If he’s trolling, he’s trolling Russia. That was the claim some spineless Russian naval people made, instead of taking any responsibility for the tragic Kursk accident, which happened during an exercise, and was the result of poor training and incompetence.

[@giuseppegranatiero]

I'm not trolling! What happened to Kursk is still not clear because full reports on that accident were never published by russian navy and are still classified nowdays. That's why I used the word "supposed". However it's an histarical fact that the Toledo together with Menphis were both on the accident area checking Russian fleet maneuvers. Nobodies knows if there was a collision or not... Or at least, nobody outside the two government and the people who was there

[@fatmikesvapemotoandtech.3240]

That would be awesome if it had windows. And yes I know this isn't practical.

[@nielsandresen907]

there has been an almost 60 min Video dealing with these facts, is it deleted?

[@AmericanPride1234]

If I am going to take a tour then I wanna hit the Fire button on a tomahawk. You know, just to check to make sure everything is in working order. lol2-15-19

[@tcklan]

what the song?))

[@heylel1841]

It's same submarine that bumped over decade ago into kursk ?

[@mdb831]

USS Toledo is a Flight 3 Los Angeles class fast attack boat. I would be willing to bet she could take on 10 Chinese subs at the same time and come out untouched

[@brianschwartz2892]

Wardrooms for officers are a waste of space and money...

[@vostro467]

Nice

[@spwb2k]

2:05 does he say Mr. Dumb John lol

[@kangaxx4396]

They cant even pronounce Toledo

[@MaxBorges888]

Obsolete, they should sell it to the North Koreans!

[@rjeanette9189]

We should send you instead moron
