I realize that this topic is extremely old (I got the 120 day plus warning), but I couldn't find the most recent thread on jobs.  I love the search feature  :love: :rofl2:

I work at a Navy shipyard as a structural engineer.  I have spent the majority of my time working on Los Angeles Class submarines (the first sub I worked on was the USS Houston that played the USS Dallas in the Hunt for Red October) and have been to the majority of the deepest darkest smallest areas on them.  I have squeezed through a 12-3/4 inch diameter hole a couple of times.  I have also spent some time working on Ohio Class Trident subsmarines and will soon get the chance to work on the Seawolf Class submarines.  Next week I am going to the east coast to be part of an audit team as part of the certification of a Virginia Class submarine.  I should get the opportunity to tour/inspect a submarine that is still sitting on the factory floor and is a couple of years from being certified and operational.

To give you an idea of the shear mass of a submarine, Newport News Shipyard has a 900 metric ton crane that can lift the entire superstructure (multi-story structure that sits on the flight deck) onto a new aircraft carrier.  It would take at least 7 of these cranes to lift a Los Angeles Class sub and it is the smallest in the current fleet.

I have actually stood under an aircraft carrier in drydock and I have sat next to a former sailer that worked as Sean Connery's personal advisor in the movie mentioned above.

Really I spend most of my time doing paperwork, but I can sure make it sound cool.  :biggthumpup:
