    “I chose to be on submarines because they are a tight knit community. We are also some of the best Sailors in the fleet. We are an elite force. We take on the role of everyone’s job. We not only perform our regular jobs, but we also stand watch, we clean, we fight casualties, so we are all a jack of all trades. Getting my dolphins was an arduous process. It was very humbling. You get to see what everyone does and get the pulse of the crew. It was difficult and took me about eight months, but it was worth it because now I belong to a brotherhood that extends back generations.” – Electronics Technician (Nuclear) 2nd Class Marcus Pearson, assigned to the Gold Crew of the Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine USS Kentucky (SSBN 737).
