This 1967 documentary follows the crew of the nuclear attack submarine USS Shark (SSN-591). Part 1 introduces crew members at home before deployment, and shows the departure of the Shark from port. Source: Naval History and Heritage Command, UMO-41.
My daddy was on the Shark. He died in 1983, years after leaving viet nam. He died of leukemia, I think brought on by chemicals used in the jungles of Nam.
God. I wish I had an American flag.
I just want to go outside climb a flag pole and wave it.

Why is it everyone in this little film looks ten years older than the narrator says they are?

@ogukuo72 The military being what it is, they might have had to do this for the purposes of this movie....
