Sonar Sup was in crews mess (dummy), the sub was in dip scope at 1 am (dunno why) esm was told to ignore high signal strength cuz they were just gettin off station and the TSO was not removed yet, the broadband operator was sending all sorts of junk to fire control, and they werent using nightowl. I also heard the open mic recording, and it sounded scarry. Really scarry. About 5 seconds before the collision you hear the PBB operator say "contact is breaking." Im a sonar tech so I know that means the contact is close. This time it was a lil too colse. I know a lot of the details of the collision.

Not to mention the quality assurance to try to fix this disaster in the yard. And this wreck isn't running home with no sail - that's were lots of the nav gear is located. Too bad . . . I was on the San Juan - 751 boat and these are good boats. peaceout, Submariners A periscope will run a cool million – I would guess there are 7 masts and antennas bent over.

I got out of the Navy in '57 and went to work at Mare Island in '58 and had an occasion to board Grayback one time to retrieve some equipment. Also in '58 I had the pleasure of watching the Halibut (SSN 587) slide down the ways and had the privilage of working her for many years afterward.
