	Why I Am Proud To Be A Submariner
		The first one I took was aboard USS Threadfin (SS-410) on 22 February 1949.
		All of these submarines were built and served in the Second World War except USS Francis Scott Key...which was a fleet ballistic missile submarine - nuclear powered - which first went to sea in 1966 - with me aboard.
