It actually caused me to join the Navy and become a submariner.

DIESEL BOATS FOREVER

Well--if prizes are being handed out--count me in too!!! I loved that show!!! :rock:

FYI--Only movie that accurately depicts the Sound of depth charges is U-571. Otherwise, that flick is--well--challenged ;) .

How do you know it sounds accurate?

You've heard depth charges? Wow! I never have, so I guess I have to believe you.

Finback 02-14-07 05:41 PM

My father has. ;)

Oh there's got to be an interesting story there! Can you share it with us, Finback? I'd love to hear it.

Finback 02-14-07 05:54 PM

More to come. Suffice it for now to say he heard over 300 from far away to way too close. Yes, they do rock the boat. ;)
