Good morning ladies and gents. Flag-o-Gram.

I have a request of everyone today. Please stop over and and bump, and maybe read, this thread. Ping me if you want, a full inbox would be great. Demand is outstripping the supply, of cash, available.

You can visit this site to read about the Hobbit Hole Knife Project. There is also a section where you can read some of the Troop feeback about the knives. Very recently, 28JUL, one of our guys even mentioned the effort in his blog.

You can even read about past projects the Hobbit Hole folks have done.

The naval numbers may be slightly inflated. The Jimmy Carter has been so modified that it can't be considered an attack submarine. The same goes for the Memphis. And the San Francisco may also be permamently unavailable as a result of its damage.

Their other missions range from intelligence collection and special forces delivery to anti-ship and strike warfare.

I saw this program, National Geographic Specials The Sinking of the Warship Belgrano on PBS the other night.

The show made me wanna barf. The producers interviewed a number of the guys from the H.M.S. Conqueror. It seems a few of them were all gung ho to be aboard a submarine, but never expect to have to shoot at anything or anybody. The reality of you're here to kill people and break things didn't sit well on there consciences.

National Geographic has lost a lot of my respect over the years. I was a "Valued member since 1978" until I let my membership/subsription lapse in 2003.

Thank you PE. It's a great work the Hobbit Hole has been doing. I know it is a great expense for all but worth it.
