Kind of figured. I doubt Rickover would have allowed photo opps in front of a reactor station.

Rickover was a dick, a smart one, but a dick.  He came on board when we were in precommisioning, tried to get down the ladder to upper level Op in his goofy zoot suit.  18 year old topside watch stops him, "Need to see some ID Sir".  Do you know who I am?

Kid pulls the 45, yanks the slide back and says, "Don't care, you may get down there, but you won't see anything".

*

He joined us for sea trials, took an orange and headed to his room.  My boss says later  "Go get the peels".   Weren't any, he wastes nothing.

By which, I assume, you mean awkward, and seemed like a good idea at the time but in hindsight you kind of regret it?
