Ian Moore – Dolphin cap tally

Ian Moore – One experience of claustrophobia | Ian Moore – Part Three
http://submarinersstories.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Ian-Moore-Orpheus-cap-tally.mp3

I joined Orpheus as my first submarine in 1975, and at the time, my cap tally said HMS Dolphin.

The reason why it said HMS Dolphin, is because only qualified Submariners are allowed to wear the HM Submarine’s cap tally.

So, mine said HMS Dolphin, and the first thing that any decent Submariner wants to get rid of is he wants to get rid of the Dolphin cap tally.

He wants the HM Submarine’s cap tally.
