Steaming Volume Two: King Paul's Big, Nasty, Unofficial Book of Reactor and Engineering Memories (The King Paul Series)
Wow, you’re like STAR babies. You’re not quite sure what you’ve gotten yourself into but decided to “re-up” for more. This next edition of Steaming includes activity on the KP Site between Nov 21, 2002 and June 26, 2003. This period has some of my favorite stories. It also contains the most controversial tales in the collection. This second “deployment” has a slightly different flavor than the previous one. I didn’t plan it that way. I just ended Volume One before it got too big. I figured you guys didn’t want to get whacked over the head with anything over 600 pages when your wives got tired of hearing you laugh and then hiding the book whenever they stormed into the room.
Volume Two still focuses on the Big E, but also features tales from CGN, other CVN, SSN and SSBN nukes. We fondly recollect boot camp, A-School, Nuke School, prototype, and the everyday delights of life at sea. We also become somewhat introspective and share why we chose to become navy nukes. Spoiler not one of us regretted it.

Another great volume collection the stories of my Naval Nuclear brethren. Lots of great memories and tall tales and adventures remembered in this one. Recommended if you ever wanted to see the true behind the scenes life of Naval nuclear engineers.
