A submarine
Just my submarine story, nothing to do with the movie. We were tied up to the pier in Subic Bay and a submarine is entering the harbor. I was on "lookout" on the signal bridge when the OOD, a boot lt., called up and asked me to identify it. I was lazy and hungover so I waited a couple minutes then called back down that it was the USS Thresher. He proceeded to report this to the Capt., that the USS Thresher was entering port whereupon his knowledge of naval submarine history was enlightend. He wasn't real happy but I laughed a lot~!
That's funny, I don't remember eating anything purple!
