THE most annoying ship - ever!
I am playing on my laptop for a while, pc in hospital, its a long story, on USS Skipjack, but this ship has to have been the most stubborn ship I have ever encountered anywhere at any time.
Feb 1942 off Manila. Two torps, direct hits. Stern went under waves almost immediately, all rounds of AA fire from stern twin guns, no difference. Opened up with 4.50 bow mounted, and it took 7 shells, took out funnel, front derricks and rear derricks, to commit her to the deep!!!

Well, get out of the hospital, in as safe, yet efficient manner as you can! Get well, 'K? In the meantime, ~nice~ screenie.
Edit: OK, I just read in another thread that you were imbibing... your ~computer~ is in the hospital... I'm not confused, just befuddled and mixed-up... sour eggnog now... - I do hope your computer gets well though! Last edited by propbeanie; 12-27-17 at 05:59 PM. Reason: Sorry 'bout that - cancel the ambulance! |
