Great Jumping Jehosaphat!!! It's Ensign Parker!!

This is something that got lost in the shuffle last week when a certain Pacific sub sim was released.

The classic 1960s comedy, McHale's Navy: Season One, is now available on dvd!!

These are the adventures of the misfit crew of PT-73 during World War II. They're one of the best fighting crews in the Navy, but break regulations when it suits them. Their commander, LCDR McHale, is at times as roguish as his crew, but he puts his foot down when things go too far. They are assigned an XO, Ensign Parker, who is by-the-book, but too much of a klutz to command too much respect. They have a house-boy Fuji, who deserted the Japanese Navy, who wears a POW outfit just in case he's caught so he won't be shot at. Their nemesis is CAPT Binghamton and his aide LT Carpenter. They're initially stationed in the South Pacific, but move to Italy in the last season.

Never knew the story moved to Italy in the last season.

McHales Navy was never a big favourite of mine when it first came on.
