It is writed in the german Wikipedia: Alle Missionen beginnen mit dem Erhalt der Befehle im Funkraum. Dort erhält der Spieler über einen Fernschreiber zunächst eine verstümmelte Nachricht, die zusammen mit dem Namen eines U-Bootes der Los-Angeles-Klasse genannt wird. Der Spieler muss die entsprechende Seite im Handbuch des Spiels suchen, auf der der Name des genannten Bootes steht, und die folgenden drei Zeichen nach Abbruch der Nachricht eingeben, um den Code zu entschlüsseln und die Befehle erhalten zu können. Anschließend beginnt der Spieler die Mission.

Translated: All missions start with the receipt of the instructions in the radio room. There, the player receives a teletype first a garbled message, the lot along with the name of a submarine of the Los-Angeles-Class. The player has to look for the appropriate page in the manual of the game, giving the name of the boat is called, and to enter the following three characters to abort the message to the code decrypt and receive commands to. Then the player starts the mission.

Bubba indeed, and what makes Bubba worthy of such a personable address? Not sure we will ever know.

He was a shrimp-boat captain before joining the Navy.

Didn't Bubba in Forrest Gump come from a long line of shrimp cookers? :hmmm:
