Only seasoned sailors and very «submarine men' got quite a shak-

officer. assisted by others. He
proved its efficiency by a record
ascent from a depth of 370 feet.
This would be unbelieviahle were
it not authentic. The pressure. in-
1 creases about one half pound for
each foot of depth. The actual
pressure per square inch at 370
feet is 164 pounds. What can’t
the human body take? The train‘.
ee does not go down to this depth,
: needless to say.
“Don't stay down more than a i
. couple of minutes the first time,”
the student is advised. “Just find
:out for yourself how easy it is
, to
breathe under water. Next
time stay under for five minutes.“
Every man in the submarine
service must prove his fitness by
taking a yearly test in the lu'ng~
'training tank. An ascent faster
than 50 feet a minute is dangerous.
The pressure has to adjust itself
slowly inside and outside the
body.
The average submarine can re-
main submerged for about 36
hours without replenishing its air
supply. The only connection one
compartment has with' "another, is
by a small water-tight door,
which weighs 300 pounds. Should
the vessel tilt in a direction 0p-
positc to that in which the door
closeskbrute force‘ would be re-
quired to close the door. This was
the situation'that confronted the
electrician on the "Squalus" on
May 23, 1939. His timely display
of physical strength in closing

hit it, saved 33 men from death

Every submarine crew is indoc-
trinated in the law that quick
decisions must be followed by im-
mediate action. Emergency drills
accustom thc men to shut these
water-tight doors and secure them
in a matter of solit seconds. The
most important single instrument
aboard is the depth gauge. A
needle on the dial indicates the
depth in feet.
