See my post #10.

Have you been to sea on a warship?

My Brother-in-Law was a naval aviator. He flew Neptunes during the Cuban missile crisis. I can remember him telling how low they flew over Russian ships but that was a totally different scenario.

I will email him and see if he has seen anything like that. They are on Eastern time so probably already gone to bed.

Only in a submarine...We had our go rounds with the Rooskies there too.

Nope.

I just assumed, however, that the purpose of a warship was to not allow the armed enemy to penetrate their perimeter without fighting back. Care to explain why that's allowed?
