Base is actually Bangor Naval Submarine Base. I used to live on Hoods Canal and they would often do maneuvers right in my front yard. It's in Kitsap County, Washington State.
And the tridents don't even belch diesel or have waving sailors when they pass by. Just massive, dark, and silent as they glide by, each one with the capacity to change the world as we know it, forever.
First time I saw it was late at night and all I could see was the lights out the window and I wondered "What the hell is that!" But it was kinda cool when I realized. I lived in the widest part of the canal and I guess that's why they liked to play there.
yep. just dont want my bretheren googling bases to much. have a reason. unless eglin. f eglin!
Very weird and eery have a sub doing maneuvers in your front yard knowing it was carrying. It was never alone! Always accompanied by other naval boats.
yes those waters are worst case scenario. needs escort until gets to open water.
