I remember reading a Patrol Report where The Chief Engineer amputated a thumb on the periscope hydraulics while getting underway. They left him behind for the trip.

I'm hearing it was a different boat (an SSGN), and the casualty was loss of a hand in relation to TDU ops.

One guy lost a hand. Did someone else die?
