LUKE: The most challenging thing about my time in the
service probably was earning my submarine
qualification Dolphins.
So the submarine qualification pin or insignia, people call
it the Dolphins, because there's dolphins on it.
You have to go through several years of training to get to
that point.
And there's a lot of both knowledge and hands-on stuff
that you have to do to get there.
And it's sort of a team effort.
Like your crew and your fellow people on the sub really help
you out to get there.
But still, it's a great accomplishment.
That's one of the biggest challenges I think I overcame.
Very few people have gotten their Dolphins.
And it's kind of a small, almost fraternity of people
that sort of know what it takes to get there.
Because unless you've done it, you don't know how hard it is.
