Re the boredom:terror ratio -- not unlike driving an airplane -- or an 18-wheeler, I suppose.

"You need a sense of humor 'cause life is funny....." -- Delbert McClinton, "Somebody to Love You." I agree with you and Delbert.

IMO, laughter is a great release AFTER the bullet has been dodged -- while the actual dodging is being attempted, navies are well-served by captains who laugh less and lead more. It really is tough at the top.....

Ironically, a discussion of what's funny and what's not, in what setting, could probably foster as much argument here as politics, religion or sex.

I did not know that Robin Williams was once a submariner. If you can point me to some link describing Williams service in the navy, I would enjoy it.
