	The Chambered Nautilus
		Other than a snail shell, a nautilus shell is chambered inside; the animal itself inhabits only the outermost, apertural chamber.
		The nautilus benefits from this by resting in water depths of 100 to 130 feet during the day, but climbing towards the surface in the night on the search for food.
		A nautilus' shell mouth or aperture is protected by a hard and resisting lid, which closes the aperture, when the animal withdraws into the shell.

		In their overall appearance and dimensions, USS V-5 (later Narwhal, SS-167) and USS V-6 (later Nautilus, SS-168) were similar to Argonaut and constituted “submarine cruiser” counterparts at least partially inspired by German success with long-range submarine commerce raiders in World War One.
		Narwhal and Nautilus served usefully in the 1930s, and just before World War Two, Nautilus was modified to carry 20,000 gallons of aviation gasoline for refueling seaplanes at sea.
		Thus, Nautilus joined with Argonaut in transporting Carlson’s Raiders to Makin, and then with Narwhal, landed a strong detachment of U.S. Army Scouts on Attu in the Aleutians preparatory to the main landing that regained that island from the Japanese in May 1943.

		Admiral Chester Nimitz assigned Argonaut and Nautilus (SS-168) to transport and land marine commandos on Makin in the Gilbert Islands.
