I was on the USS Los Angeles (SSN-688)..and yes being the first in class we had too many visitors - Jimmy Carter (he used to be a nuke engineer), Rickover and too many others to count - they all had their eccentricies

I was the Engineering Watch Supv so basically I had to be able to both startup and shutdown the plant
