This page shows photos of Submarines, our members served on. 

Firstly some amazing facts, which I am sure will impress you.? Of our 20 members, they served on a total of 93 Submarines, of which 56 were different. Erick Skelton has the record with an amazing 11 Subs, (obviously had a problem settling in) followed by Brian Busch with 9. Also we have:

1 Jack Dusty, 3 Sailors, 6 Sparkers, 7 Back afties, 2 Greeneys and last but by no means least 1 Grocer.

I hope you enjoy.

When you joined Submarines, did you ever consider that you might end up looking like this! Bob (Nutty) Head.  Scrubs up well don't he!)
