A QUOTE F.T.C. - "Strange, they're saying the Nautilus was "quieter", but I've read many a report that said the Nautilus sounded like a cross of Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang and a freight train coming and going. The Skipjack was the first quieter of the first nuclear subs. That's just what I've seen. My brother served on the USS George Washington, although he would never even talk about what ship he served on until the 1990's."
