Suck it, gramps!

A funny thing, to come all this way, to hide a submarine in a river... This is the actual USS Dallas, returning to Naval Submarine Base New London after a lenghty deployment about 2 months ago... The best part was when people on shore watching, began to cheer and clap! |

What's the matter Commander? You don't like flying, huh? Aw, this is nothing! You should've been with us five, six months ago! Whoa! You talk about puke! We ran into a hailstorm over the Sea of Japan. Everybody's retching their guts out! The pilot shot his lunch all over the windshield, and I barfed on the radio! Shorted it out completely! And it wasn't that lightweight stuff either, it was that chunky industrial weight puke! |

Quoted: When this first came out on VHS it was like 90 bucks. They were trying to keep the cost of owning movies artificially high or something. Videos bought in those days were licensed for commercial replay, it was the mid nineties when they studios decided that they could add more previews, and sell copies licensed for home use only for less. |

When I was 12, I helped my daddy build a bomb shelter in our basement because some fool parked a dozen warheads 90 miles off the coast of Florida.
This thing could park a couple of hundred warheads off Washington or New York and no one would know anything about it until it was all over. |

Quoted:
Kaptain! We are out of the sea lane by as much as a boat length! One of my favorites! The book IS better though.  Its the best adaptation of any of Clancy's books. Its like they took the middle third of the book and made the movie, but switched the order of the St. Lawrence River hiding scene and the sub battle scene. |
