Note: The US Navy put no restrictions on me about what I should say or how I should present what I learned on this trip. Other than making sure my footage was cleared for Operational Security, I am free to say whatever I want about this experience.
Another note: The Navy did not ask me to provide a link to their website (or do anything for that matter), but Iâm going to provide a link because I want smart people to become submariners. The US Navy continues to provide stability and security in ways no other organization on earth does.

There are tons of interesting career opportunities out there that I never knew about:
The US Navy has several options such as engineer, pilot, submariner, logistics, accountant, medical doctor, and even Public Affairs specialist. I continue to be impressed by people that I meed who spent time in the Navy. I worked with various people during the course of filming this video and they were all top notch. www.navy.com/

Thank you for taking the time to watch this video. I'd also like to thank the US Navy Public Affairs Officers who helped coordinate this. After clearing the video for OPSEC, they did not limit my creativity in anyway whatsoever. I decided to make a video about the Command Structure on the submarine so we had a better foundation moving forward in the Submarine Deep Dive. This video is just the beginning! I have some incredible things to show you as a part of the deep dive. Please consider subscribing for those. I'm most grateful to people who go the extra mile and support Smarter Every Day on Patreon. It's a super big deal because it brings stability to Smarter Every Day in ways that's hard to describe. In this case, I had to buy a plane ticket to the Arctic on relatively short notice. If you'd like to become a Patron, I'd greatly appreciate it. The link is here: www.patreon.com/smartereveryday

âTHIS is the USS Toledo.... Iâm going to show itâs quirks and features, then take for a drive and give it a Doug score.â

I love how one week Destin is interviewing the captain of a nuclear submarine and a couple weeks ago he was interviewing a guy that runs a weed wacker. Only the experts for this show!
-
You can't believe how young the crew are and how much responsibility they have on their shoulders. True professionals.
-
I can't get over how nice you are to everyone. You aren't even on the submarine and you introduce yourself to sailors. As well as on the Sub. I think it is awesome! You seem like a genuine, kind human being. We need more people like you in the world!
-
The excitement I got from this notification was unreal
-
This is so cool, I was stationed on the USS Toledo from 2004-2009, we were the ones that painted the diesel yellow and black.
-
The Captain seems like an awesome guy to serve for really good with his crew
-
To the XO instantly being like "Do NOT disturb the sleeping crew" massive respect. The common sense of the XO keeping the Captain in place lol
-
"We're on a ship that sinks on purpose." haha love that line.
-
My father was on the Toledo and where you sat talking about dolphins Iâve sat and ate dinner with my father so many times

Thank you for the videos. I am an ex-submariner, attached to the very first Los Angeles class submarine, SSN688 USS Los Angeles based out of Pearl Harbor. I left the Navy around 2000. I can show my kids your videos so they get a look at what my world was like 20 years ago. I was at first a âRadiomanâ in the Navigation unit, but they merged all of Nav and Radio jobs into one rate called Electronics Tech. I remember having a flooding event while at sea. I remember the best food in the US military. I remember popping the hatch in the middle of 3 Hawaiian Islands for a âSwimming Callâ. I remember standing deck watch at port in Pearl thinking about all the American and Japanese who lost their lives there. It was an amazing time of my life. Keep up what youâre doing. You are truly making our youth smarter everyday. đđ

They're sending Dustin to space one day at this rate.
-
The intro is something out of call of duty
-
What I liked most is how deadly serious every single member of the crew is about their job but they are also totally open to be lighter and tease each other and laugh. They have some good leaders on board
-
The people involved in this are incredibly inspiring
-
I love how Destin is always respectful to everyone. He is always listening and does never act like he is better than someone. Sir, I respect you.

Next month- SED: Boarding a top secret alien space craft!

as the parent of two young men in the Navy it is greatly appreciated when we can get a greater understanding of what our men and women in uniform are getting themselves into. One of my Sons is at Naval nuclear school right now to learn how to operate a reactor on a sub, so this helps me understand what his life is going to be like when he is away and unable to share with those who worry about them.
