Share Your Favorite Naval Pictures and Videos!

Wigabee · 12-22-12, 10:50 PM

I thought making a thread for sharing general naval pictures and videos would be fun for everyone so here it is! Post any cool/interesting images or video links and we'll see what kind of collection we can get started! I'll start it off with a couple of my favorite pictures and a cool video link at the end. I could stare at these for hours....

An Atlantic Convoy in 1942.

Another one of my favorites. A very bizarre picture opportunity. This is a German submarine's second torpedo wake heading for a crippled U.S. destroyer.

Here is the video link I mentioned above. This is amateur footage from an allied Atlantic convoy.

I am excited to see what will be posted here and look forward to some cool pictures and videos!

@ Steve

Do you have any good ones from your Navy days? Or was that before cameras were invented?

Jap midget sub @ Oahu. That must have been a rush patroling the beach and finding that sub!

If there's one thing older than me, it's that joke. And it gets older every day.

The best one out there:

Wigabee · 12-23-12, 05:19 PM

U-123 which was a Drumbeat boat, shelling British freighter Culebra.

HMS Courageous damaged and sinking at the hands of U-29.

And to top it off, here's a video I enjoyed about German midget submarines.

By the way, nice pictures everyone!
