:hmmm:.....................
War has broken in the pacific, a fortunate turn of the wheel
had me in Hawaii the day of the attack. Despite concerns for
my health SS-238b Wahoo took to Sea this morning with myself
at the con.
Dec 8
weather good, Wahoo and Croo in all respects ready.
Slipped moorings and made for Midway by the standard route
on the surface. conducted trim dives, Battlestations surface,
Battlestations torpedo, Damage control and fire drills, Radar and
Sonar approach drills, and Perpetual TMA drills.
eventually lost sight of Oahu. The Skipper is back :arrgh!:
Dec 10
Lookouts and bridgecrew all see mystery light dead ahead on the
horizon, unable to close or verify contact by any other means.
gone at dawn. Decided that we werent taking the war seriously
enough and doubled the drills.
Dec 11
Midway anchorage on radar, good. Food fuel
and lets get going. resumed drills.:yep: Deck
gang did a great job handling the lines, fueling
complete, sent departure message by flag on the
way out. ....
"For Moms Apple Pie, The Girl Next Door and a Piece of Both."
Personal log supplemental
Well the crew may be able to take it
but I need the drills for me, its been a while.
The WUPs will do me good at least, I admit
something just feels right when dancing with
the one eyed lady.
Health and Happiness go hand in hand, its
good to be back aboard. Life and game are
harmonious now, who is to say whats ahead.
Nothing easy and nothing free, that much is sure.
The enemy abroad, awaits our effort, struggling, as we do!.
