That’s eyes only. We lost, I think we lost our first after that, and that’s brutal. The position is a bottle of whisky. The Senior Student is told first.

Goes to the Captain’s cabin, Teacher is in there with the Captain, saying we’re going to get rid of ‘x’ in 20 minutes. We’re going to put the submarine on the surface, we’re going to get a helicopter, we’re going to get him in, you’re going to pack his bags, make it as painless as possible.

He goes in, there’s a bottle of whisky on the table, he knows. I always wondered, we lost two, at what stage they knew they might fail. I think one kind of knew and the other one not sure did.
