Well, of course! LOL! I should have known. Thanks for the info. I'd just never thought about it.

Your Fathers ship saw alot of action..and had many close calls.

Sara in Her battle colors...note 5"-38's

Sara recieved alot of damage externally and internally during a Kamikaze attack on Feb 21st 1945.

Navsource has a photo collection ...**warning..some of the photos show dismembered bodies.

Good evening to all at the Foxhole!

To all our military men and women, past and present,
THANK YOU for serving the USA!

[SAMWolf]

When Snippy did her thread on naming ships it showed just how confusing the whole sysytem is and how it changes depending on who's running things.

[radu]

Dang! Did it again! Post #63 is for everyone. :-)
Forgot the ping list.....that's what I get for trying to do this stuff while sick. LOL!!

[SAMWolf]

Thanks Light Speed.

It makes one appreciate even more the price these men paid for us.

[SAMWolf]

Evening Radu!

[SAMWolf]

Another one who's sick! There has to be some nasty bug going around.

[radu]

Hi SAM.
I'm just cursed with a nasty head cold. Could have been a lot worse....I was afraid it might be the flu when this first hit last night.
It makes it difficult to do anything on the 'puter, though. The monitor is awfully bright! LOL! Makes my eyes water and I can't see to read and type very well.

Hope you're doing well and have managed to keep from getting the "crud" that seems to be running rampant these days. :-)

[SAMWolf]

So far so good but Snippy and Feather seem to have been hit pretty bad. Feather is on the mend but Snippy's is just starting out.

Maybe I should quarantine the Foxhole before it spreads to all of FR. ;-)

[Soaring Feather]

Well now you're in The FOXHOLE!! LOL

Take care radu.

[radu]

Oh my. I knew feather had been sick but is feeling better. Didn't know snippy had come down with it. Hope it's just a cold. That won't last too long.

I think a quarantine is too late....it's already all over FR, I do believe. LOL! That time of year!

[SAMWolf]

She just started coming down with it yesterday and I talked to her today and she really sounds terrible. I'm hoping it's just a cold too.

[Samwise]

More good work, snippy!

[radu]

*giggle*
I'm struggling all around FR as best I can. SO far behind and trying to catch up. Don't think I'm gonna make it but I'm trying.

[radu]

She just started coming down with it yesterday and I talked to her today and she really sounds terrible. I'm hoping it's just a cold too.

Sounds like we got clobbered at the same time. With luck, we'll both feel chipper again in a couple of days. :-)

Oh my gosh radu you gotta go to the ZOT threads, two today. LOL

[radu]

hehehe....I spotted the pings and was just getting ready to see what the Viking Kitties have accomplished today.
Gonna be a lot of that going on the next several months, I'd guess.
