This is life aboard the USS Oklahoma City, a U.S. Navy fast-attack submarine currently on its 180-day deployment. From the moment the hatch seals shut, their world transforms: no cell phones, no daylight, and no privacy. Follow the crew as they navigate the highs and lows of underwater life—hot bunking in beds still warm from the last guy, taking 30-second showers twice a week, and preparing four meals a day in a galley the size of a food truck. You’ll witness "silent running," where even flushing a toilet risks detection, and "Halfway Night," the only holiday beneath the waves where sailors throw pies at their officers. From fresh veggies that vanish by week two to family messages limited to just 40 words, this is the unseen world of America's most elite submariners. And when they finally surface, nothing compares to that first breath of fresh air or the feeling of sunlight after half a year in darkness. Welcome to life in the Silent Service. This is what it takes to endure 180 days underwater.
