[Ellis] For me,
it was a lifelong dream to join the
family that I experienced growing up
with a submariner father.
I grew up with submarines as a sort of
playground for my imagination,
running between the missile tubes and
swinging through the watertight doors.
What really stuck with me, though, through
my adolescence, were the ties that bound
the entire family together.
[Hardy} We're a small force, team-oriented and
well-trained.
We rely upon one another, we look out for
each other and we support one another.
Submariners truly take care of their own
in a way that is difficult to explain
until you experienced it firsthand.
Being somewhat confined from the outside
world, we’ve relied on one another
technically and personally the entire
crew really
knows one another.
