Expect light posting this week -- we've got family coming into town and our youngest is graduating from High School (yes, the two events are related). Please feel free to discuss amongst yourselves about pretty much anything.
Ginger or Mary Ann?
ReplyDeleteWhat boat are they going to?
ReplyDeleteHooyah Chicago! Hooyah America! Hooyah EOH! Hooyah PHNSY, the greatest shipyard ever!...
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Mary Ann.
ReplyDeleteJoel: Great thanks for the service you provide the submarine clan. Muito obrigado.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on running the best submarine blog on the 'net Joel! I love this picture of the Chicago... awesome.
ReplyDeleteIs it surfacing? Why the light colored top on the deck? Looks like bubbles.
ReplyDeleteNice Photo! Hard to hide in water that clear!
ReplyDeleteLook at that scar in the water! What a counter-detection threat...tell the OOD to SLOW DOWN!!
ReplyDelete(/sarcasm)

I deny your Hooyah. Just back a line of cement trucks up to the DD basin and start filling that thing in.

ReplyDeleteSun bleaching of the black topside paint, most likely.
I thought submarines were non-detectable at PD.
ReplyDeleteThis was at the end of the exercise.
ReplyDeleteWe did two weeks at PD doing this and they never found us. It was amazing.
That Damn Good Looking Aganger From Iowa.
Congratulations Joel, I enjoy your blog and it brings back good and some bad memories!
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty humiliating counter-detect.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Chicago is getting ready to goto a Luau with that nice green skirt on.
ReplyDelete"I deny your Hooyah. Just back a line of cement trucks up to the DD basin and start filling that thing in."
ReplyDeletecould not agree more....
Raise your hand if you dropped a sub off the blocks in drydock.....
And to think that they tried to BRAC the best shipyard out there... PNSY!
glad we still have anonymous posting!
I fully match with whatever thing you have presented us.
ReplyDeleteit becomes an incredible, beautiful, simple and easy sincere online video of a great idea. I am this type of supporter of the function! I'd take a nip of treat away any tree every day.
