It's smaller than those heavy duty forklifts, but it can handle any job

That's a better signature Red October ...



which reminds me I joined the submarine service fifty (50) years ago this coming Wednesday April 3rd 1963.

A few days later on April 6th the USS Thresher sank with all hands on board ...

my mother wasn't too pleased with my volunteer status after that, but what's a young boy suppose to do.

I've been in love with submarines since I was ten (10) years old watching the old black and white Silent Service tv shows.

I'll try to find a picture ... no one ever really believes these stories anyway

I can't see those pictures.

I like this sig though. I saw it on the google image results when I was looking up Fleet Boats and I had to put it as my sig.

A shot of some of the monitors I, well, monitor while at work.

Reminds me of the guys that work for local authorities and manage the cctv systems in populated areas around the country.

A crime is committed then they are worth their weight in gold in helping you pinpoint the exact location at the precise moment the crime was committed.

The right most one.

And Jim, yeah that is part of the job, look up specifics for law enforcement quite regularly, though more often than not we don't get the entire incident and sometimes you only get it in the peripheral area of the camera.

Still often good enough to gain a successful conviction...at the scene of the crime, weapon or action in full view, leaving scene of crime with stolen property etc. etc.

You do a good job despite the fact it can become boring for long periods of the shift

The last time I saw that many monitors, the security guard was faced the opposite direction, eating a pizza.

The amount of feeds coming into this place is into 4 figures, only the highest risk ones are on screen constantly, this type of video surveilance is there to look at events after they have happened, it is very rare that an actual incident in progress is caught. If one tries to keep monitoring the monitors constantly they will go insane is fairly short order.

Hello every one I havent really posted before so I thought I would say a bet here... I have liked sub sims since silent service on the commador 64 and the nes. any way right now I have and play silent hunter 4 and 5..... there are some things that strike me as odd about 5... is it just me or does it seem like the torpedoes or underpowered, or is it a porblem with the damage model for the ships....

any way good hunting every one
