U-571

[GO-NAD!]

I really felt for the sailors after watching "Das Boot" . I would not have wanted to be stuck in any tin can regardless of who made it.

Yeah, they were the enemy, but as submariners, I do have a degree of sympathy for them. The U-boats had a 75% death rate - the highest of any service branch, of any country during WWII. People sometimes ask if I was ever scared about serving in submarines. I can honestly say "never". But, I never had to go to war....

submariners

Is that where they get the term S&M?

EDIT: Do submariners make eye contact when they eat bananas?

WTF?? Sometimes you scare me.

WTF?? Sometimes you scare me.

That's why you should always pick an easy-to-remember safety word.

That movie had us in stitches, it was so unbelievable.

This coming from the guy who can't wait until his daughter will watch the Harry Potter movies with him. Oh, excuse me - the Harry Potter documentaries.

If it would make you happy, sure.

You see, I know about submarines. But, I've never been a wizard, so I'm not qualified to say that the Harry Potter movies aren't realistic.
