Absolutely! And with the usual Naval efficiency all the designers that
rode Submarines were immediatley but to work in the Aircraft Carrier
division. All who rode in Carriers went to the Cruiser shops.
Submarine design was accomplished by a cadre of highly trained and
experienced chimpanzees who had spent the pre-war years working in a
sausage factory. :/
