I can't help but note that CHommel is no longer listed as active... Just a coincidence I'm sure...

Gunnery Training Class, although I have been wrong before; in 1987 as I recall.
Pipes out!

Okay, I have to admit that sounds more likely than Greek Teriyaki Chefs. But not nearly as much fun.

Fine. You chuck buckets full of stew at me and I'll chuck a few pounds of lyddite at you and we'll see who gets tired first. ;D

dorbel wrote:Mon Jun 13, 2011 6:23 am True, no torpedoes on Cadmus class sloops. I see that the Wiki entry for this has expanded greatly in the last six months. Perhaps some unsung heroes from OW have been at work!
