In school I always read about the WWII chapters in the book when my old History teacher whos like 75 talks for hours with no end in sight.:o He been teaching at the school ever since it opened i asked him. And its been open ever since the 1960s. :o the WWII chapters are short but have alot of info but nothing about U-boats.:cry:

All these have happened and/or do happen to me:

When you hear an ASDIC ping without there being any microwaves or anything going. (Happened this morning, heard it as clear as a bell, made me flinch :oops: No idea why, perhaps it was because of the pounding I took last night)

When you hum, whistle or sing Uboat songs, such as J'attrandei or my recent favourite, Das Uboot Lied.

When you hear a prop aircraft and want to hide and/or shout "Flugzeug gesehen!" (or something similar)

When you respond to people asking you to do something with "Ja wohl Herr Kaleun."

When you spot a ship, and mutter "Schiff gesehen!" under your breath, then start estimating tonnage, range, AOB. :lol:

I know a good shrink :lol:

when you almost wish it required more than one handle to flush the toilet
when you actually learned german from playing SH3
when youre sitting in american history (i live in america see...) and your friends over there saying "wasserbomben..." and lightly tapping the heater with his knuckle, making you jumpy.
when you RP patrol events on certain forums :D
when you get angry at your librarian for not having any viable U-boat materiel

when you get hungry...you don't
when you run out of personal experiences to talk about on this thread!:know:

Von Hally: thats quite a good idea actually

i'm changing my ringtone to 'Neuer Funkspruch, Herr Kaleun!'

When you see a truck on a road some distance ahead, which crosses the road you're on and the first thing that pops into your head is that you're lucky that you have an almost perfect 90 degree AoB... :oops:

Actually happened two days ago.

(Edit for speeling miztakes)

My Commercial Director, at work, used to command carriers for the US Navy... His ringtone is a sonar ping. This is not good for my nerves...:ping:

I work at a college and every time i hear the class bell, i think im under attack.

When your kids come in the house you tell them to seal that hatch.
When you take the garbage out,you weigh the bags down with rocks so they will sink:rotfl:

When you start to hang meat and bannanas from the rafters in your basement
When a car races down you street,you yell RIG FOR SILENT RUNNING,and listen for him to start pinging you:p

When your kids give you the nazi salute after you tell them it's time for bed.

When you come back home late in the night, you feel like you're running on 50% etanol, crippled rudder ... and you switch as fast as you can to silent drive just to to avoid .... that nasty W-destroyer waintg four you upstairs with lots of depth charges:oops:
