You can download the hi-res version here and see what kind of condiments they're including in an SSN crew's mess nowadays.Seeing the Sailors in their dungarees brought back all the discussions on the old boat of why they always made us put away our poopy suits when some bigwig came onboard. I could almost see the reason for it back in the early '90s -- when poopy suits were submarine-specific -- but now that the whole fleet is wearing them, I'm not sure why the Sub Force feels they need to hide from the CNO and MCPON the fact that Sailors wear coveralls when they're onboard.
Off-topic: Seeing the picture of the crew's mess on a submarine reminded me of a sig line on an E-mail I got from a sub guy who had gotten out, went to work for a vendor, and became a rider:
IM ON UR MESS DECKS EATIN UR FOODZ
(If you're over 30 but don't have teenagers, so you don't know why that's so funny, here's some background -- bad word warning!)
