The SS (separated from the Holocaust thread).

[Iceman]

This whole topic sprang from the remark of someone commenting on the SS in my sig....It is again well worth noting the term SS does not only refer to Nazi Germany Thugs....just as the Swastika did not come from the Nazis...

The American public has come to regard the submarine force of the United States Navy as the "Silent Service." In some respects, this definition is accurate.
