Steve Yah, looks like my question was a bit sloppy --and here I was instructing you all to provide a "complete" answer to an incomplete question It probably should have been: In the film The Hunt for Red October, according to Jack Ryan: Capt.Ramius is known to do what in the bottom half of the hour? Well, I'll try to do better. So, looks like I better add Oberon and Wolferz to the winner list. And I'll retract the complicated restrictions I mentioned. I think I'm beginning to crack under the pressure of devising Google-proof trivia questions that can actually be answered through previous knowledge of the subject. Carry on!

Technically it was a Sub, Destroyer, Corvette or Merchant, the Merchie was free to play though IIRC. |
