The
purpose of this form is to continue to gather
opinions from submariners on the subject of the
impact - cultural, technical and otherwise - resulting
from the transition to nuclear powered submarines.
While the book has already been published, it
is not too late to participate since my intention
is to turn over all the submissions and all the
materials related to the book to naval historians
at the Navy Yard in Washington, DC, at some point
in the future. All these items belong in an institutional
(permanent) place in the event future historians
want to examine this important transition.
My intention has been to restrict submissions to submariners, but upon reflection there may be civilian contractors or shipyard people who have something to contribute that may give the project some more depth. So, submissions from them are welcome and will be added to the project.
Thanks for your interest,
Dan Gillcrist
