I never got fooled on April fools day but I keep running into jokes days later.

The SH4 pic and stuff caught my attention and got my hope up but then

As for the US Princess Diana, the picture used isn't of a Virginia class sub so i caught on.

I was away this weekend for a military obligation and the fact that April Fools day was on Saturday, I missed it (an all the opportunities!).

Hey, it wouldn't be much of a joke if it didn't catch some people. Thanks!

Mr. Stevens, you're an evil man!

To those of the Senior US Navy leadership who read this, my statement still stands.

I've gotten quite a few e-mails and comments from forums and blogs who have discussed the "news article":

One day there will be a USS Ted Kennedy....it will not be able to go near bridges though

Princess D is a Virgin class submarine, your kidding me....rofl
The USS Princess Diana will need a lot of Seamen
http://www.militaryphotos.net/forums...p?t-77335.html

I'm waiting for the USS Condoleeza Rice - a black submarine that makes a lot of noise while running from country to country. These guys never caught on to the joke

Pravda, no less.

I hope this sub doesn't collide with a tunnel support beam under the street of Paris.

Ouch!

This is crazy! A sub named after a women! It goes against the grain.

What the heck; it's a great morale-booster for USN sub crewmen....of OTHER subs!

I'm sure I've seen this joke mentioned on MSNBC and a few other place. I'll see if I can find it.
