Can’t wait for the Smarter Every Day International Space Station Series

This is a very honest and smart way for the Navy to recruit and definitely beats a flashy advertising campaign. You can't say you don't know what you are getting yourself into after this! Such a great series.

I am a retired submarine sailor. I made 13 FBM patrols and among my last positions on the boat was Diving Officer. Great job Dustin. You brought back lots of memories.

I'm sad the series is over. This is arguably some of the best content on your channel. I hope to see similar style stuff in the future.

Wait, this was 42 minutes long? This felt like 20 or even less. Truly one of the most interesting series I've watched and enjoyed in a long time.

I can't be the only one who is EXTREMELY happy that of all people Destin was able to experience this! You were the right person for the job Destin!

Destin, I am a former submariner. (RM2/SS) , having served actively from 1980-1988. One of the commands I was on was USS OMAHA (SSN-692) now decommissioned. Your series here not only brought back so many memories, but also the respect, enthusiasm and genuine interest in what we as Submariners do everyday is a credit to the messaging that you put forth in this video. Thank you for showing what you could of the dedication, perseverance and love of country and honor that ALL submariners put forth. Please acknowledge that service g in the US Submarine Force is completely VOLUNTARY on the part of the officers and crew of each boat. Dolphin wearing Submariners are a brotherhood and sisterhood thst is a source of pride for each and every one of us.

I love how much pride thoses submariners take in their job. They seem to be going along very well, and it looks like a nice work environment.

Seeing the photos of the kids behind the captain made me realise that you’re letting the families of this crew see what their parents and loved ones do. Someone gets to go “That’s my Dad!” And that’s a super special gift.

This is mind blowing, there’s so much more to a submarine than I could have ever imagined.

My Grandfather and my Father were both submariners. I never understood the immense pride they held about the difference between a submariner and a sailer until now. You’ve really shown some incredible things in this series and I’m glad to have gotten the chance to understood those that came before me better.

My daughter just enlisted in the Navy for submarine service...this series actually calmed this mama's nerves about her serving in that environment. Thank you!

Destin, I spent almost 4 years on an attack sub, taking her all the way to decommissioning. I was one of the guys operating the reactor in the back that I’m sure you didn’t get to see during your visit. I’ve really enjoyed your series and am quite surprised the Navy allowed you to do it - you must have really impressed someone higher up!

Hi Destin! I'm the guy who narrated "Thunder Below!", and I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I'm grateful for your kind words about it, and I hope anyone who decides to listen to it based on your suggestion enjoys it also! :) I've been following this video series since the first one, and it's been a nonstop joy to watch. Thank you for doing this series, it's been fascinating.

I just binge watched the nuclear Sub series. It was outstanding. Two major things came out of this for me. The first was how mind blowingly complex the engineering on board the sub is and how breathtaking it is for the designers to fit all that equipment into such a small place with so many considerations to take into account. Secondly was you were incredibly honored Destin. The crew were absolutely first class in how they welcomed you aboard and the enthusiasm they displayed to show you as much as possible. The Captain was utterly fantastic and gave you far more time and attention than i would have thought. Overall the crew of the Toledo gave an incredible account of themselves and the US Navy submariner force. You got a once in a lifetime VIP access to things people dont get a chance to witness. I hope the Navy were pleased with the outcome and the PR they have received. Well done! .

The thickness of the ice (below the waterline) can be calculated by taking the water depth of the sub and subtracting the sonar distance from the sub to the bottom of the ice. Adding another 10% would give you the actual thickness of the ice.

Every time I think "why did it take so long to get the next in this series" I am reminded of exactly where and what you had that camera pointed at, and how amazing it is that this series exists at all. So thankful!

The access the Navy allowed Destin on this sub was incredible, truly an honor for him and us, his audience.

it is just insane that you get to enter these super classified areas, make videos about it and then show the rest of us what suff look like and how it works. I have watched this series before but I felt like I had to see it again. thank you Destin for being the awezome man you are!
