About this time yesterday I was aching and still had a whole lot of painting left to do in the family room and kitchen. I kept thinking by this time tomorrow I will be all done with painting have have two beautiful freshly painted rooms. I am happy to say that I actually did it! I have two freshly painted rooms and they look fantastic. The family room used to have orange walls with a peachy colored ceiling, that we have had for over 12 years. Wow, writing that out makes it sound awful. It was actually kinda cool. Now it has beige walls, with a cream colored ceiling. Writing that out makes it sound bland. I can’t win. It sounds like I just went from ugly to bland. It looks great. Can you trust me that it looks great? Okay. The kitchen went from a olive green to a really pretty blue. I absolutely love it. When I look at it, I smile and feel like I accomplished something. The only problem is I can’t turn around. Behind me is a huge mess of paint cans, garbage, items I refused to put back in the two rooms, and I think a small trash elf that keeps making it worse. Plus I physically can’t turn around because I am sore as heckadoodle.

Super Nuke!: A Memoir About Life as a Nuclear Submariner and the Contributions of a “Super Nuke” – the USS RAY (SSN653) Toward Winning the Cold War
by Charles Cranston Jett
4.2 Stars (72 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs

FREE for a limited time

“Charles Jett has written an entertaining and factual memoir of an important time and series of events in the history of the cold war. He has succeeded in telling the unclassified story of the journey taken by an extraordinary group of men who built the first operational “Super Nuke” and effectively shared what they developed with others in the entire US nuclear submarine force. He created the SSN Pre Deployment training program, consolidated developments made on the Ray to create the highly useful Geographic Plot (Geo Plot) and wrote the tactical doctrine for the SSN based electronic intelligence collection system, AN/WLR-6. Well done, Charlie. I am proud to have had you as a shipmate.”
Albert L. Kelln
Rear Admiral, United States Navy (Ret.)
Former Commanding Officer and Plank Owner
USS RAY (SSN 653) – The original “Super Nuke”
“Charlie Jett succeeds in providing an unclassified account of what it was like to be a nuclear qualified submariner who had the unique experience of building and serving aboard the first operational “Super Nuke” – the most modern fast attack nuclear submarine designed specifically to face the Soviet Navy during the Cold War. He describes the contributions of the commissioning crew in developing sonar techniques and operational tactics and how these lessons were ultimately and effectively communicated to later “Super Nukes.” Charlie provided the initial idea and was instrumental in establishing and implementing a new concept of training which significantly improved the operational readiness of the nuclear attack submarine force. He created the “Geographic Plot” to improve operational safety and wrote the tactical doctrine for a new and sophisticated nuclear attack submarine electronic intelligence gathering system. “Super Nuke” is a good read for those who have an interest in life as a submarine officer and how these marvelous machines and their crews contributed to winning the Cold War.”
The Honorable John H. Dalton
Former Nuclear Submarine Officer and
70th Secretary of the Navy
“This is a most interesting work on the U.S. Navy’s program to combat the Soviet submarine threat during the long Cold War. Charlie was in at the beginning and accurately describes the significant efforts, both in individual sacrifice and technical development that led to U.S. undersea superiority. As a junior officer his individual accomplishments were most significant. The submarine efforts were probably the most important U.S. competitive strategy that drove the Soviets to the poor house and led to the demise of the Soviet Union.”
Bruce DeMars
Admiral, United States Navy (Ret.)
Former Commanding Officer, USS CAVALLA (SSN 684) – a subsequent “Super Nuke”
Former Director of Naval Reactors
