Cool... too bad we can't mount rockets on our boats like Fluckey did.

He was like a madman... always on the surface... that harbor attack... blowin up trains... I don't think he would've lived to long in the Bay of Biscay.

Very aggressive he was; different tactics for a different theater against a different adversary I s'pose. ...and I truly think he was pretty "Lucky"

I wish Fluckey would've given a little more detail on his targetting method in his book. But it seemed like he more often was doing semi-crazy stuff like sneaking past destroyers to shoot at fat stationary harbor targets, or assaulting cities with rocket attacks.
