SSBN. ETV. Will not respond to questions about sensitive or classified subjects. My views are my own and I do not represent anyone.
Hi there!
Edit: since this has been asked several times:
SSBN stands for “submersible ship, ballistic missile, nuclear powered”. That is, the same overall type of ship as the Red October.
ETV stands for “Electronics Technican, Navigation”, because N was already taken by Nuclear Electronics Technicians. I work with everything from interior communications and announcing circuits to Electronics, shipwide atmospheric monitoring, navigational inertial gyroscopes, strategic nuclear missile navigation, and tank level indicators to basic underwater submarine navigation using the voyage management system and even helming the ship itself.
Depends entirely on the command and the crew. Regulations forbid it. Tools exist to counter it. Training is regularly conducted to inform about it. But it can still happen. We have sexual assault prevention and response as a program to help victims, along with victim advocates to help deal with the aftermath. We have support groups, regular speeches, mandatory courses. But there will always be bad apples.
