Tridents or Tomahawks?
The caption on the page and photo conflict. --Corpsman223 (talk) 23:41, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
- I have requested a filename change to File:Ohio-class submarine launches Tomahawk Cruise missiles (artist concept).jpg.

Second Fleet?
According to the page on the United States Second Fleet, it has been disestablished, so it seems like this base is most likely under a new garrison.

The "Magnetic Silencing Facility"
- I was hearing a story recently by someone who worked there, mainly just "yeah worked on this odd site"
- Granted also due to the national security reasons *researching into this too much + documenting that may not be too good of an idea, although most of what can be known is probably known by those who would use it to harm us/allied forces*, but i did some looking around i guess
- A Video Titled "King's Bay Submarine Degaussing Facility" by the YouTube Channel "Dorsey Beard" 21 seconds long, shows it from a distance as a person drives by
- Around 30°46'45.7"N 81°29'30.6"W seems like the location
- I can't seem to find much on the specific facility, but here is some link spam on similar sites / the concept of "Deperming" / "Submarine Silencing" etc overall :

- https://nation.time.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2011/01/fact-sheet-submarine-silencing-facility-final_14nov085.pdf
- Also adding this:
- A Video by the YouTube Channel "Exail" Titled "ECA Group - MAGNETIC RISK MANAGEMENT"
- This video has great animation!, it used "Deperming" to describe the one-time "fix" of a sub's magnatism, Degaussing for the active system on ships, and "Ranging" for something akin to deperming but for ships
- A Video by the YouTube Channel "Exail" Titled "ECA Group - MAGNETIC RISK MANAGEMENT"
- That's about it for now, i don't know too much on all this, so i'll probably leave it at this, at least for now. Just thought i'd throw all this out there

Walt Nauta
While Walt Nauta was posted at a submarine base in Georgia, I cannot determine if it was this one. 2603:7000:2101:AA00:7468:9C4F:BECE:5B21 (talk) 09:40, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
