Probably the most asked question on this forum.

Bernard is the crewman that we all seem to have in our boats that we blame when we do something stupid , like run into the pier at Wilhelmshaven coming home from patrol at high TC, accidentally launching a torpedo at nothing, ordering hard port and nothing happens and you don't realize it as the mad destroyer is bearing down on you with a bone in her teeth, etc., etc., etc.

He's usually hides out in Balz's boat as a bunch of farting bananas.

Riiiiiight ,I see now,the scapegoat everyone likes to ridicule?

I had better keep an eye out for him then.If thats the case I have had a few problems with Bernard pressing the fire button accidentally in the past.I think he has a nervous twitch the poor sod.Better watch that coffee supply on my current mission,cant have him all pumped with caffeine walking like a chicken up and down the boat wherever he goes!

I had the biggest, BIGGEST, "OH #$%&" moment this morning.

While getting coffee, I flipped over to the news. At that second the ALERT "North Korea has launched missles" came up. At that very moment when my mind registerd missle launch, the power went out.

"Oh My God, This is the End OF Everything" was my first thought.

Then The lights came back on.

If that could have been set up any better it would go down as best prank ever.

You are, of course, entitled to your own reactions, but I have to ask, why would you think that a test of a Korean missile would result in an attack on Montana?

And don't you think any "effect" of the missile would precede the news reporting? If the news is reporting a missile launch, it has already landed/crashed.

The hatred the North Koreans have for Montana is well known, but I don't think they would use a missile test to take out Montana.
