What happens when two old submariners decide to take a road trip and catch up on some old mates?

They still have a strong bond and enjoy the type of banter only close mates and ex submariners understand. Exclusive offer – A limited number of the original copies have been donated to the museum to sell and have been signed by the author. There won’t be any more so when they go that’s it.
