USS Torks/John Brown

Nice AVG!

They have the same deal in San fransick-o. It would be fun to do a subsim meeting there, other than it is a little spendy there.

Still pretty cool pictures, even for a mobile Chris.

I was looking on someones blog the other day and there were a load of pictures of past crew and volunteers from the USS Torsk visiting the USS Becuna with 'baby JR'.

I couldn't see you though

Pictures of me are few and far between. You can fine me in the FER or AER working on something

So Gil went up to the con and trained the attack scope on the Brown!

The submarine's captains dream!

Attack scope looks darned clean! Have you guys had that thing apart to get it that way?

AVGWarhawk · 08-17-09, 01:09 PM

No sir. Not that I'm aware of. That would be quite an undertaking anyway. Just getting an antenna installed up on the sail was a trial. Going up there to clean that scope would be just as nerve wracking. The scope is that clean. The first photo you will see some dust and dirt on the outer rim area. I have used it several times and it is very clean. I often wondered why some scopes in the mods are a bit dirty. I guess because looking at old black and white photos lead us to believe they are dirty. Certainly some water drops would remain on the lense when in use. But, there you have it. Original WW2 attack scope on the Torsk.

I've probably already got them.

I'm just struggling a little in trying to Photoshop some clothing on them

Yes, specially tailored trousers are had to come by especially if you are photoshopping them.
