You can't fool me; that grin is always there. It happens when your brains leak out from too much hard work and not enough play time.:rotfl:

Comment two: I know what boat I want - USS Sea Dog (SS-401)! What a name

Actually, any of the "Seas" will do:
SS 399 USS Sea Cat
SS 400 USS Sea Devil
SS 401 USS Sea Dog
SS 402 USS Sea Fox
SS 405 USS Sea Owl
SS 406 USS Sea Poacher
SS 407 USS Sea Robin
SS 304 USS Seahorse
SS 315 USS Sealion

Guys on the USS Flasher probably had a self-image problem too.
Are you aware of the British 'Insect' class gunboats? They had one called HMS Cockchafer.
