Rick & All, (...) U.S.S. Missouri ship in Pearl Harbor, and it was an absolute pain for me to try to manuever in that thing! (Since I am a rather big guy) My video of the events was funny to see. But it was a great experience to see. Good luck on (...) (23 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats)

(...) Heh, did you get to hear the story about why, among the "scorecard" on the tower, there's a bus and a crane standing on a dock...?

(...) I'd hope they weren't "Pibbers." The last thing you need is flashbacks on the tour. But no, I haven't visited Fall River--I really should.

(...) Gosh I wish I would have kept my sub, although it was crappy. It had a good conning tower, and was a basic sub idea, with only one deck. No pictures either! ~Evan :-D (23 years ago, 25-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.boats)
