Regarding Q post of “rig for red” which is spotlighted in “The Hunt for Red October” which Q used as a signature many times! We thought we figured it out when the hunt for was removed (the finding of missing sub) but recall that Q comms often have referred to multiple meanings!

The navy states “rig for red” is only used on subs for periscope depth. Recall the scene where they communicated by Morse code!

One ping only please! Kek

Factual error: When the USS Dallas submerges to attack the Red October, they rig for battle stations as well as rig for red. On a submarine, rig for red is only for periscope depth operations at night, to allow control room watchstanders eyes to adjust to the darkness topside. No other area on the boat rigs for red.

Exactly!

It fits with silent running tactic aboard a sub!

>>8361429

Submarines may go into silent running while out on patrol in hostile areas, or to practice their skills; in some instances, submarines have also been known to lie in wait on the continental shelf in total silence, waiting for an enemy ship to cross into territorial waters and then springing into action.

Silent running is a stealth mode of operation for naval submarines. The aim is to evade discovery by passive sonar by eliminating superfluous noise: nonessential systems are shut down, the crew is urged to rest and refrain from making any unnecessary sound, and speed is greatly reduced to minimize propeller noise.

Then there’s “Run Silent, Run Deep” a Novel by Commander (later Captain) Edward L. Beach Jr adapted to film.

4 dots, deep?

The story describes World War II submarine warfare in the Pacific Ocean, and deals with themes of vengeance, endurance, courage, loyalty and honor, and how these can be tested during wartime. The name refers to "silent running", a submarine stealth tactic.
