I posted about the SubPac list a few days ago; now, the base newspaper at Subase NLON has the list of SubLant "E" winners:
SUBRON 2 - USS Albuquerque (SSN 706)Interestingly, USS Newport News (SSN 750) earned the SUBRON 8 Tactical Operations White "T", so that's more evidence that they're a pretty good boat. Also of interest was the fact that only two of the six Battle "E" winners also won the Engineering "E" -- the number's normally higher than that. Maybe it's taking more than being a good nuke to win the Battle "E" nowadays. (Being an Eng-type myself, I'm not sure I like this trend...)
SUBRON 4 - USS Seawolf (SSN 21)
SUBRON 6 - USS Norfolk (SSN 714)
SUBRON 8 - USS Hyman G Rickover (SSN 709)
SUBDEVRON 12 - USS Alexandria (SSN 757)
SUBRON 20 - USS Tennessee (SSBN 734) (Blue)
Special category submarine - NR-1
