YOKOSUKA, Japan (October 10, 2018) Fire Control Technician (Submarine) 3rd Class Jacob Smith, from Norfolk, Virginia, stationed aboard the Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine USS Connecticut (SSN 22), poses for a portrait on the pier at U.S. Fleet Activities Yokosuka, Japan. “I joined the Navy to better my working experience and to have an opportunity for college,” said Smith. “My advice for Sailors considering submarine duty is that submarining is hard work, tiresome, intensive, but in the long run, I can call every person onboard my family. This is a community you are willing to die for.” (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Ryan Litzenberger/Released)
