Found this link while doing research on nuclear submarines. I'm involved in writing about the old Irwin Allen tv series Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and have submitted a formal proposal/outline for the pseudo-revival of the series, but with a new spin. Would LOVE to converse with and pick the brains of some of you guys, particularily those in recent/current service. I've toured the USS Louisville at Pearl and the USS Tennessee at Kings Bay for my research. Our homepage is www.daffronanddelaney.com If anyone is interested in helping, please contact me.
