North Korea now threatens to sink US Navy's nuclear-powered submarine USS Michigan
The Ohio-class submarine is stationed in the South Korean port of Busan.
North Korea has issued a fresh threat to sink the US Navy's nuclear-powered submarine which is currently stationed in the Korean peninsula waters. Pyongyang said the vessel would be turned into an "underwater ghost".
USS Michigan, armed with cruise missiles, arrived at the South Korean port of Busan on 25 April to take part in "routine" exercises. The Ohio-class submarine is being joined by a large fleet of the US Navy's warships led by the supercarrier USS Carl Vinson, raising the tensions on the volatile Korean peninsula.

P!
Monty Python skit?
Move the Michigan to its combat station. Tonight. Let Kim try to find it then.
What are they gonna do..put Jim Harbaugh as it’s captain?
I pray for those in command of our ships and for those who sail upon them. I pray for all our troops stationed in Korea. I pray for their families who accompanied them.
May God’s will be done.
One of the subs in the OMFG project. My favorite military acronym for a project. When the Admiral who named that project found out OMFG had another meaning he tried and failed to get it changed.
A joke; An intriguing story with a humorous climax. - 1st Officer Spock (USS Enterprise NCC-1701).

"Busan", I take it is the old Pusan, famous for the Battle of Pusan Perimeter during the Korean War?
My Dad was there, briefly.
The USS Michigan could make a silent run right up the Taedong River, and release all of its ballistic missiles, one targeted right on the presidential palace, and there would be nothing that North Korea could do to stop it.
Done by anyone else I would say yes. The little fat boy however has ego problems
Amen
The NORKS are threatening everybody and everything. They threatened the US, S. Korea, Japan, Australia and now Israel because her Defense Minister said the NORK leader was crazy...
