USS Brinkley Bass, DD-887, 1970. She was a Gearing class DD, FRAMmed almost beyond recognition.

My current avatar is kinda small, but it's me back in the day.

Not necessarily, if the fuse is set accordingly

Also... Il-2
In fact, I've been flying Il-2 online for a while now... and that has been keeping me off the submarine business... but I just bought STEAM's Ubisoft WWII pack, and am relearning everything about underwater warfare all over again.

Cheers

Poor Gunfighter.

The greatest edited SS designer of all time.. Why'd you put that big ass eagle in there. So big the plane looks like prey........

Let's see if we can get the quality up this new year....

I know that, Gunfighter, I was just pulling your leg. Sarcasm and such, you know. Tell you what, get a case of Super Tenents and get really drunk tonight and whip up another screen shot for us. Should be hysterical.

Courtesy of a Jap bomber, uhhh...Surprisingly this was not a fatal blow to my submarine. In fact, SS Porpoise did not really seem to mind all that much.

SS Porpoise on patrol off the coast of Japan.


In the house of the Rising Sun.


Our first sinking - took us 4 patrols to achieve that small feat.


Leaning on the deck gun in the evening.


Crash dive!

Me striking a direct blow to a lone Fiji Cruiser south of the Shetlands. The torpedoes JUST hit it since i miscalculated it.
Fired a salvo, two of them were duds. The ship sank in like 30 secs. Its now my desktop backround since I think it looks awsome

And your new picture looks fine to me. Looked a little funny when I saw it this morning but I had a few pints and everything's alright now.
