Anchorage and Alaska is expensive. I lived in North Pole outside of Fairbanks. Only visited ANC for either VA stuff and a friends wedding. Have visited Barrow, Nome, Sitka, Valdez, Seward. I would have LOVED to visit Attu and Kiska, but the logistics of it was crazy. Attu is only reachable by charter boat and it is a long trip. I think it is the same for Kiska, but not sure. Anyway you have to check with NPS and USCG before hand.

After 20 years, it was time for us to go back to Oklahoma.

I never saw anything other than fishing boats on my way out of DUT. Flash traffic reported the attack on DUT but I didn't see any IJN TFs. Maybe I wasn't out far enough.

an observation

I get an instant reply from HQ when I do a position report. I could have sworn in the stock game there was a delay in the reply. Is there a way to add a delay of atleast 30min - 1 hour for the reply? That would may it more realistic.
