Rarely, the U.S. Navy breaks may break ageold rules concerning ships movements. When it comes to stealthy subs, the rules have usually been much more stringent. Secretary of the Navy Knox (1941) clarified that the Navy would not mind if the press published certain ship news provided nothing be said:

.

1) until the Navy released the information (not within seven days of the ship's arrival),

2) about a ship's length of stay, date of departure or destination,

3) about any damage it had received,

4) about its route to the U.S.,

5) about how the ship took part in any battle,

6) that might be of value to the enemy.

Submarines are always silent and strange.
