Capture of the German U-Boat U-505

Polar Bear Attacks U.S. Submarine

A polar bear chewed on the rudder of a U.S. submarine and then attacked it after the sub surfaced in the ice pack during maneuvers between the North Pole and Alaska this spring, the U.S. Navy reported last week.

The submarine "Connecticut," a new Seawolf-class sub, had partly surfaced with its sail and rudder sticking through the ice on April 27. An officer then looked around outside with the sub's periscope and noticed it was being stalked by a polar bear.

In a series of pictures captured on the periscope's camera, the bear apparently chewed on the rudder, then batted it around. The Navy says the damage was minor.

YELLOW SUBMARINE

1 on all the UK charts, with four weeks as the Record Retailer 1 (August 18-September 8 1966) and 13 weeks in the Top 50

RECORDED
May 26 1966 in Studio 3 at Abbey Road, completed in Studio 2 on June 1; the master was Take 5.

RELEASED AS A SINGLE
In the UK on August 5 1966 - Parlophone R5493

In the USA on August 8 1966 - Capitol 5715

PERFORMED LIVE
Not performed in concert by The Beatles

and

'Yellow Submarine' was issued with 'Eleanor Rigby' as a double A-side single simultaneously with the album Revolver

'Yellow Submarine' was written especially for Ringo to sing - most Beatles albums included a song featuring Ringo on lead vocal

The song inspired the creation of the extremely successful Yellow Submarine movie, released in 1968 and reissued in upgraded form in 1999

 

I once expressed an interest in Submarine Service, but failed the first question:
"I like to sleep with the windows open     True___  False___ "

One of my "voices" is very fond of telling me that I'm about as useful as a screen on a submarine.....

I just blew away the PT test

AF PT Test, right? A mile and a half on a bike in 30 minutes? So, how hard can that be?

Ok, joking aside...good for you! APFT was one of the things I struggled with my entire career. I was one heckuva Intel NCO, and the men and women I led were the best taken care of crew there was...I just wasn't all that hot on push-ups! Oh well...we survived!

Hi everyone!

I am preparing a care pkg. for the pastor of a friend's church. He is in Iraq as a chaplain. I am asking that any of you who wish to send support messages, please FReepmail me. I will paste all the messages to a Wor doc. and print them out and send them. This man has a chance to share these with LOTS of soldiers in his capacity as chaplain. Thanks -- I know I can count on you all! (I already printed out messages from Blue Star Mothers website -- are there any other good ones you know about that I could print from?)

And Kathy and RC, would you please ping anyone else you know who wouldn't mind being included?

Thank you all so much!

Hi beach!! Still warm winds coming up from the Phillipines.

[HiJinx]

Oh, c'mon, Bro, you like manning the deck gun, right? And where else can you get paid for telling the wife you're going out with the guys for months on end?

Ok, so you're not going to bars or ball games, but...

Anyway, thanks for your service! We all appreciate what you do more than any of us can say. Thanks.

I just blew away the PT test AF PT Test, right? A mile and a half on a bike in 30 minutes? So, how hard can that be?

There are new standards that will take effect next year. It consists of a 1 1/2 mile run to be extended to 2 miles. Push ups and sits ups. It is a lot tougher standard then the run years ago or the bike (which I hated.) To paraphrase the old Buick commercial "It's not your Daddy's Air Force any more"

Ok, joking aside...good for you! APFT was one of the things I struggled with my entire career. I was one heckuva Intel NCO, and the men and women I led were the best taken care of crew there was...I just wasn't all that hot on push-ups! Oh well...we survived!

I'am currently an Intel SNCO. If you have the right crew it makes the job fun. Now my concern is to get them into shape. I don't think they liked to get beaten by an old sarge.

Good afternoon, darkwing! Thanks for helping to keep the world safe for all of us.

Thanks for the coffee, great start for the weekend!
