Welcome to the USS BIRMINGHAM (SSN 695) website. Feel free to take a look around, and leave a comment here to let us know you stopped by, and what you liked (or didn't like!).

If you'd like to see more, you are invited to register for full access to the site, which includes thousands of photographs and sea stories from the men who served on Cold War submarines from 1947 to 1992. See the tab on the right side of your browser window on almost every page.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact your Site Lead or a member of the Staff using the CONTACT US link in the Watch, Quarter, and Station Bill on the starboard side of every page.

In the meantime, the smoking lamp is lit, so grab a cup of joe and relax as you wander around and experience what it was like to serve on one of the 394 submarines dedicated to bringing an end to the Cold War. 

Don't forget to leave a comment!

Lynwood - the fastest way to connect with old shipmates is to send them an email or private message (PM). Simply go to the Fleet Master Crew Roster, or the Master Sailing List of a specific boat or command. If an individual is registered with Cold War Boats (not missing or otherwise) they will have two links on the right side of their profile listing - SEND EMAIL and SEND PM.

Click SEND EMAIL or SEND PM, and they will get a message from you without revealing your email address or contact information. Private and secure, you can reach out and let them know you'd like to reconnect!

We can only connect you with those who have registered so let your shipmates know in your Facebook groups, USSVI bases, and other meeting grounds for Cold War boat sailors. The more we can get registered, the more old shipmates will be able to reconnect.

John,

Gene is not currently registered with Cold War Boats, but our Birmingham roster is not yet very long. You are welcome to register as a 'family' member, and encourage Gene to get signed up as well.

This is an example of a comment posted in the SSN 695 Visitors Log. Have comments about the website in general? Kudos? Recommendations ? This is the place for those sort of comments.

Gripes? Bitches? Problems? We have a place for those too, it's just not here. If the FAQs don't answer your questions, and your problem is still unresolved, create a Help Ticket, using the Watch, Quarter & Station Bill in the right hand column of most pages.

Comments about a specific boat? Go to that boat's Home page using the Fleet menus above, and look for a Visitors Log unique to that boat.

Can't find a boat's Visitors Log? I'm not surprised - most boats don't have them yet - file a Help Ticket, and we'll get to it!

So that all said, keep it clean (this is a family-friendly site) and tell us here what you like about the site or what you'd like to see.

We'll be pleased to hear what you're thinking.

Brad
