Perhaps what is needed is a marine militia.

Yeah! I can see the fleet of mini bass boats now. That's a good idea. ;-D

They should arrive just about the start of hurricane season. Don’t get many hurricanes in the Persian Gulf.

Send them a few pics of the seawolf class sub. Because they will never see or hear them otherwise.
.Going out when the weather is nice... Warn them to get out by September, wouldn't want them to sink during a nice Atlantic hurricane ..

I’m not at all comfortable with the Russia, Iran, Turkey alliance/movements coupled with China’s movements. They’re all like circling the map.

Too bad they didn’t do this when Obama was POTUS.
Instead of us having to fly that $1.5 Billion Dollar Ransom in Cash to Tehran, they could have just sailed over and picked it up. Obama could have met them at the Dock.

This reminds me of one of my favorite lines in Hunt For Red October.In this scene things are coming to a head between our sub and red October.The skipper of our sub (the same guy who played Agent Starling's boss in Silence of the Lambs) is looking through the periscope and,as he's doing so,he says in a very stern and determined voice "if this guy so much as twitches I'll blow him to Kingdom Come".
I hope we still have some Naval officers prepared to do that kind of thing to Iranian pig fornicators.
