Default Ha I found a funny

Just put this song into context, as in you are chasing a convoy or task force, or attempting an escape from it.

I'm not sure what kind of context you are talking about. I mean, how to picture myself in this when playing. The end is funny, but some people might be put off to stick through the clip until the end.

I'll just throw one out when i was playing vanilla during sometime 1943ish

there was a task force with 2 BB's, i think they were king georges. So anyways, I disabled one of the king georges, and set of a hornet's nest. I was under for at least 20 hours, with alot of can's coming down after me. The sonar reading from the king george ended, but i didn't get credit for it. The depth charging stopped, so i waited until the destroyers got out of the area. Right when i surface, about to congratulate myself on a job well done on not getting killed, and expecting the Disabled king george to be destroyed. Right when i surface, i go to the conning tower and hear a thundering of guns, and I get blown out of the water. OF course, it was the King george that didn't die. Its like saying i got away from the woman just to trap myself into a wall, contextedly.

The depth charging was deemed so successful that the conning tower damage was orange, so i didn't really check it. I wonder if toby keith feels the same ?

But now periscope maintenance seems in order, occasionally. You never know when a lense is messed up

The best ride of your life....encapsulates the thrill of the chase.

You have to admit jimbuna that this ride is even better.
