So, I'm starting to get a little involved in astronomy and have a telescope now... so I went to a meeting in a nearby town. I'm sitting there when this older gentleman walks in with a shirt with a submarine on it and a submarine on his hat. He also happened to be from my city... I randomly ran into a WWII submarine vet!?! I told him I was into submarine simulators, but that was about the extent of our submarine talk.

I didn't even know we had a submarine vet in our city let alone to randomly run into him.

Of course my American Submarine knowledge is weak as I have played German campaign games and have only played the german campaign in SH4... as I'm used to those boats, torpedoes, etc...

Anybody have any specific questions I could ask him?
