At random: The United States submarine USS TRITON was fitted with twin reactors and was considered the longest submarine ever built until the advent of the OHIO class. The TRITON was designed for a surface displacement of 5,900 tons. Large submarines of other countries have been the Japanese I-400 (5,220 tons), and the French SURCOUF (2,880 tons).

I came across a name plate/tag that read "CDR - NC USN". I tried to track the owner but he/she had already left the place. Trying to figure out what the NC could be. I don't think I've ever heard of someone referring to his rank that way. Any guesses?

Several years ago I saw a license plate on a car at Cracker Barrel which said "MEDAL OF HONOR". Naturally I was intrigued and looked over the crowd to try to guess who it may be, but with about a hundred folks eating lunch I was too shy to investigate further.
