I was there in Aug-Oct 1966. The safety divers were there for that, and you
were asking for a punch in the gut if you weren't exhaling all the way up!

I understand that they finally built a 35 ft deep replacement pool! That
training tank was the main landmark on the base, they had one at Pearl
Harbor too but I never saw that one. I qualified on the USS Torsk SS-423
and spent my whole time in Norfolk or Charleston.
