I'm a sub fan too. Been stationed on them all my career!

I remember my toy model of the N/S Nautilus that I played with in the bathtub:)
Later I read the Jules Verne novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.

I, and many others, have a world of thanks we owe to you vets.
Debts that we are unable to repay you.
Please just accept my thanks and appreciation.
I am sure you don't get it often enough.

Prior to his last day of work responds Supreme Commander in a DN interview questions about the submarine search in the Stockholm Archipelago on 17 to 24 October last year.
- I am absolutely sure that Sweden was violated in October. I am even more convinced today than then. The final analysis that we conducted is broader and much deeper, says Sverker Göranson.

It's almost imposssible to find a submarine in the Baltic Sea.
Different saline content and temperatures is a problem for detectors.
Then in the Stockholm Archipelago where you can hide almost everywhere...
