Not really. The unofficial motto is 'hide with pride.' Strategic Deterrence patrols underwater on Trident submarines. Average two and half months per deployment, twice a year, two boats for five years, and this last boat for three years. If I become a combat vet, it's the second coming, the apocalypse. THe weather includes fallout and the global map changes, so i get paid to be the back end of the big spear-not the 'tip of the spear' as they say.
