How much bonus does a submariner get for for completing their training?
You get nothing for making it through submarine school - you only begin receiving hazardous duty pay when you're assigned to your boat, along with sea pay. As far as training, all submariners from the lowest rank to the CO are constantly in a state of training, so any extra pay has nothing to do with their qualification level. Submarine Duty pay is constantly being adjusted, and like anything in the military, is subject to the whims of the current political administration at any given time.It does however, affect your crew standing as a FLOB if you're not qualified on any systems (Free Loading Oxygen Breather).

What is a typical chain of command aboard a US nuclear submarine?
It depends on the boat type (SSBN, SSGN, or SSN) as far as the rank of the Commanding Officer, but the CoC is essentially the same. It's not much different than other afloat commands in the Navy, though as with all nuclear-powered vessels, the Commanding Officer and Executive Officer must both have previously been qualified and successfully served aboard another vessel as an Engineer Officer.Note:The Ship's Corpsman (Doc) reports directly to the CO/XO.The Chief of the Boat reports directly to the CO/XO. Thoughthe COB's rank is typically a Master Chief (E-9), it can be alower rank, such as a Senior Chief (E-8). Regardless of rank,the COB is by virtue of position as COB the most senior rankedenlisted member aboard ship.Commanding Officer(Captain or Commander, depending on boat type)|Executive Officer(Commander or Lt. Commander)|Engineer Officer(Lt. Commander)|Weapons Officer - Navigator - Supply Officer(Lt. or Lt. Commander)|Division Assistants(Junior Officers, in charge of individual Divisions)(Lt., Lt.(j.g.), Ensign)|Chief of the Boat(Senior Enlisted Aboard Ship)|Division Leading Petty Officers (LPO's)(Chiefs or Senior Petty Officers)|Rated Sailors Qualified in Submarines|FLOB's / NUG's(Free-Loading Oxygen Breathers / New Useless Guyswho aren't yet Submarine Qualified)
What can you bring with you on a submarine?
It depends on how much space you're allowed - NUG's and FLOB's (New Useless Guys and FreeLoading Oxygen Breathers) pretty much get rack space as their limit. If you're hot racking on Port/Starboard watches (12 hrs on/12 hrs off watch instead of the normal 6 on/18 off) with another person (you're sleeping in the rack while your buddy is on watch, then he's in it while you're on watch) then you share rack space, and your total gets halved. NUG's and FLOB's are usually too busy qualifying and studying, so they don't need that much anyway. It's even harder if you're on a longer deployment with riders and they're using portable temporary racks in the Torpedo room (nothing quite like sleeping next to a Mk 48 Torpedo or a Tomahawk missile), since even opening the rack is a real pain. Cameras are a no-no unless you've got specific permission from the CO. Yes, the pics on my bio page were authorized - I always had a camera with me. Most people new to submarine duty always take a lot more than they need. You only really need 2 or 3 uniforms and associated clothes, some civvies, media player of some type, reading material, etc. These days boats have DVD / BD players, so they don't have to load a ton of 16mm film movies like we used to for movies. Submariners wear Topsiders or some type of sneaker underway, which is arguably one of the best features of submarine duty. Rack space is pretty tight - there's only about 4 inches (if that) of depth, and 6' long and 2' wide. The washer and dryer are usually going non-stop on long deployments, so clean stuff isn't a problem. Soap, deodorant, shaving gear and tooth stuff is mandatory, unless you really want to deal with the rest of the crew. Over time, as you advance in rank and qualifications, you might get more space with lockers (e.g., I had 5 separate lockers for use, as I was the ship's PAO, Engraver, and Deck Division Supervisor) and you can always squeeze personal stuff in there. Back in the days when they didn't have soda machines, I brought a case of Coke with us to the North Pole in one of my lockers. I also lived on board for a few months, and I was allowed some extra space as a result. But I was also a Senior Petty Officer also; when I first came aboard, I didn't get squat for space. Rule of thumb - pack light as you really don't need that much. If you're not on watch, you're training, eating or sleeping, so there's not much rec time anyway. Each CO will authorize or prohibit certain items as he sees fit (video games, etc.), but music players are pretty standard. You don't ever want to get caught screwing around if you're behind on training either, unless you want a world of hurt directed at you. Guys that aren't Qualified in Submarines or aren't at least qualified on their own systems have no business doing rec time when they could be working on qualification.
Can you change from surface fleet to submarines?
If you're insane enough, absolutely. I had many friends (well, not MANY) who were originally Surface Navy and volunteered for Submarine Duty. The Submarine Force is all volunteer; in addition to a relative rating (i.e., not surface specific, like a Storekeeper or Boatswain's Mate) all you need to do is volunteer, and pass the subsequent physical and psychological testing. Aside from the minimum Administrative crew complement (Admin, Medical, Supply), submarine crew ratings are typically specialized in either Engineering, Electrical, or Electronic rates these days. Even the Torpedoman and Quartermaster rates have been combined into Machinist's Mate and Electronic Techs. Submarine duty is considered hazardous duty, and members are compensated with hazard pay. Most guys I've known who've made the switch have enjoyed it, since the crews are smaller and more tight-knit, and the professionalism is a lot higher as well. Also, in the Submarine Navy, your respect is earned by your ability and qualifications, not necessarily your rank. A senior enlisted who is unqualified in submarines is just a FLOB (Free Loading Oxygen Breather) and is no different than any other rank that isn't qualified. A junior enlisted member who is Qualified in Submarines is considered more valuable. Rank is still respected of course, but within the crew, overall respect must be earned by ability, actions, and hard work; you don't trust anyone who can't cut it during an emergency, since you don't have as much time to respond and contain a problem like surface vessels do. I remember one Master Chief Radioman who made the switch from Surface to Submarines and felt his rank should give him everything without any work. He lasted one deployment - the CO fired him after he lost the respect of the entire crew. It isn't easy by any means - but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything.
