We used to say that the Soviet anti-submarine doctrine was: “Hear a noise, blow up half the ocean!” I guess that it is true now.

On a lighter note, the War Departments asked people for ideas on how to defeat the U-Boats. Will Rogers offered "Drain the Atlantic". When asked how he would do that, he said he just comes up with ideas and leaves it to others on how to implement them.

Didn’t they used to say there was a Ruskie admiral who said that when he wants to know where his subs are he looks where the US P-3s are?
