I'd actually been following that discussion about Polaris... I'm afraid I used to be a mid. Just graduated in '05. Don't hold it against me, though. They suck you in while you're young; if I could do it over again I'd have enlisted first, then gone in for commissioning.

As far as the training goes, I will be a submarine officer, but you need to learn about nuclear power first. I'm just about to finish up the classroom phase here in Charleston, SC.
