The name is Lance. I've been playing SH4 for a couple of months now and I LOVE it. This is my first and only subsim game.
Anyway, some of you have seen me over on the Ubi forum and I want to come hang out over here with you guys too. Will you have me? I got into submarines after my grandma passed away in May of 2007. I was helping to clean up her home (just down the street) and found a world of my grandpa's WW2 submarine service stuff. He had passed away in 1997 without me ever taking interest in his WW2 past. I suppose I just wasn't mature enough to appreciate it all. He was a plankowner of the USS Sand Lance and earned his submarine combat insignia aboard the USS Tambor before being part of her decommissioning crew. There is a link below in my signature to hear about 45 minutes of video of him talking about WW2 submarine days, broken down into 6 different back to back videos. If any of you want to see more of the personal stuff in my collection, PM me and I'll send you a link to check out. Here's to happy hunting, and let's all SPLICE THE MAIN BRACE TOGETHER soon! Oh, and how do I get special enough to change my own avatar here? <edit> Nevermind, I read the FAQ about how avatars work. doh!
