Much of the Vanguard SSBN stuff in that document is based on the fantasy findings of one very mixed up trainee. I was on bombers at the same time William Mc-Naive-ly went through. We all saw his full revelations and reports…(after his massive experience as a trainee SMQ on his first qualifying patrol) and laughed at them. The kid really thought he was onto something. Turns out he was a bit of a fantasist. His writing references Superman and Kryptonite ffs! As for the CB8890…he was a missile weirdo and was expected to know the book back to front. Everyone on the boat was invited to read it as we were tested on the thing every year. As for not reacting to a possible fire, due to everyone thinking it was another FOST fire on workup is utter bull.
