Well, here I am in Tubes Aft, again, working on small arms maintenance.

This is in the After Torpedo Room while submerged on our 55 day patrol.  I was assigned to be the Small Arms Petty Officer. 

As such, I worked on .45  M1911A1  semiautomatic pistols and .45 Thompson submachine guns.

A .45 pistol is disassembled on the table.  I had just taken it apart and cleaned it.
