Hey, at least the version we're facing doesn't carry Tomahawks, or ASROC, for that matter.

I watched last nite a doc on the Bismark & anyone seen the documentary on Uboats called "Death traps" great documentary had many German kaptains talking about their experinces, one kaptain sunk a merchant, went to sruface found like 100 or so sailors & citizens in the water and lifeboats so hooked the lifeboats up to the Uboat and sailed for the nearest neutral port! Even gave the woman & children hot soup!
Great documentary. Theres one erie part where Gunther Prien mother is interviewed, she goes on to say that her son told her once that whenever hes on the deck at night by himself he see's death, sitting to his right smiling, he turns and death says "not yet your still got more time"... Either hes seeing death, grim reaper? or hes been depth charge once to often! Get Death Traps best uboat documentary ive seen! |

I like how that water circles away due to the shock wave from the gun firing.

Well, I can't say that I ran into the Iowa. I managed to avoid it by turning a bit to starboard.
