im not outraged although i can see why this senator is there is a misconception that the US forces to have a sub near it it must have been detected this is a diesel subamrine and capable of being very quiet clearly this senator needs to have a few lessons on the reality of submarine warfare and the capabilities of other nations

That would be interesting.........seeing a VIIC/42 duke it out with a modern DD in a wargame.

This misconception is entirely brought about by the usual USN stance on such matters, which is exemplified by those submariners in Michelle Malkin's blog (see up) and leaked into such popular media as Tom Clancies. Now it is a little too late for them to reverse their stance and expect not to be yelled at.
