Hole?? That's not a hole! It's that new "tugboat pass-through" for the safety of smaller vessels navigating in busy U.S. harbors!
![]() Yeah, that's it. :hmm:

Bit of a lame excuse to get insurance, though.
"I want insurance. I know - I'll blow myself up!" WHY, I ask you?!

And so the torpedo went 'tick-tock-BOOM!' The captain asked one of the crew: "Why is there a hole in OUR sub?!" To which the crewman replied "I put the torpedo in the wrong way round!" ![]() BTW, if anyone's interested in meh fanfic 'Paper Mario - What REALLY Happened', look up 'Paper Mario Story' on http://thebunnyhunter.deviantart.com |

The official explanation is that it hit a mine. We plant mines, the British plant mines, all God's chillun plant mines. If you can't swim, stay out of the water.

But let's be honest. Aren't they just sooooooo tempting - all bright and shiny and lit up? If you patrol around BF17, quite regularly in 1941 there's a small unescorted convoy of four ships which head SW through the patch - Two merchants and 2 luvverly big tankers. problem is they belong to the Republic of Ireland - Damn it!

"Sorry, sir! Next time I see one I'll wait for it to dock and be requisitioned by the British before I sink it."
