Greetings from Texas, PingJockey and the crew of the U.S.S. Texas!
From this former Texas military man... I want to say thank you for what you guys are doing. For you and your crew it is no "simulation" when you go to sea. The dangers are clear and present. It is only through the eternal vigilance and the voluntary surrender of your own freedoms... that freedom itself is maintained.
Freedom is never free.
Wherever you guys may be on the map... and no matter how secret the mission... Know that we will always hope for your safe return.
Now all that being said... If the poop hits the fan, all you guys need to do is reach for the top shelf... Take one can labeled "Texas Whoop Ass"
...and demonstrate to the bad guys that you just...
DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS!!!!
Hooooyah!
