    Here is a boat for you: My old boat dry docked in Guam around 1976.

    Did you hear about the over sexed whale that swam around biting the front of submarines off and sucking out the sea men.?

    Yeah, there are actually some other interesting bits about the PNW that happened back in WWII with Japanese subs launching floatplanes for the only bombing of the mainland ever. There was also the funky balloon bombs (that actually came all the way from Japan) and other nonsense.

    Apparently the Japanese also shelled a Canadian lighthouse. If you believe the conspiracy nuts, it was actually the U.S. trying to trick Canada into the war.

    I've been up there before and seen subs too. I thought lately they had escorts on each side blocking their view from most onlookers???

    Canada actually has a navy with a functional submarine?? :eek:

    I thought we had reduced the deployment force to just 2 cops in a canoe.

    I'm not joking. Most of our ships are in retrofit. We bought used submarines from GB that are obsolete and require 10's of millions in retrofits.

    It's pathetic.
