 Three sailors received their submarine dolphins during separate ceremonies at Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, Georgia, and Naval Base Kids at Banger, Washington, December 5th, making them the first female line officers to qualify in submarines. Such an honor to join, such a long tradition of submariners, finally, wearing the dolphins. It's such a long tradition of amazing men that have fought in the submarine world. So finally getting to join those ranks just feels incredible. To receive their dolphins, the sailors had to qualify in several different areas of expertise. They progress through their qualifications. They'll begin with injuring officer of the watch, injuring duty officer, where they'll qualify in the propulsion plant as supervisors. They'll qualify a contact coordinator, surfaced officer of the deck, submerged officer of the deck, then they'll get qualified in submarines.
