Who Is Your Virtual Capt. Named After?
 

For my current patrol, I've named my virtual Captain in honor of my Grandfather, who served in the Pacific, in the Phiippines. He passed away almost a year ago at the age of 96! I never tired of his war stories, or looking through his war photo album, which he left me.

The photos are great, and include a sunk Japanese merchant vessel in the bay, and the destruction of a communications tower. If I ever figure out how to post them here, I will!

I use my Uncles name who was shot down in a B17 over Kiel Germany. First and last mission for him.

Current commander of the USS Pickrel "John Wayne" :p

Name of boat
 

I named my boat after my girlfriend's pet name :lol:

USS Wiefus

William Bligh - Any man who suffered three mutinies couldn't be all bad.

USS Cat

Named after my girl's cat. Yes, that's what she calls him: Cat :o

Oh yes, the Captain - missed that. The virtual commander is my son, Andrei, of course.

Capt Underpants, and Capt Stubing

After my father.

He used to tell me about valiently defending the Great Lakes against the hostile Canadians in the early 60s in the USNR.

Even as a kid I thought that that was really funny.

He served on the USS DE Daniel Joy.
