A sub in port, especially overseas is usually tied outboard of a Sub tender. In other words you need to go through the tender to get to the sub. I can't see how anybody would make it that wasn't authorized. I suppose an attack by sea is possible also but Sub's won't go on a port call if there is any instability at all. I remember being canceled in Italy because their government was changed which is almost a bi annual event over there. We were in Tangiers once but tied up well off shore and went back and forth with small boats while a destroyer basically insured nobody got anywhere near us.

But if anybody ever did get close I would still fear sub sailors with guns more then I would any enemy trying to board:)
