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.

I have been in awe of the special type of people who choose to be part of

THE SILENT SERVICE

 To all our Submariners

YELLOW SUBMARINE

1 ON THE CHARTS
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.....

Antenna farm

GAKONA, Alaska -- High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program antennas stand 65 feet high and are spaced 80 feet apart in eight columns by six rows. With a slated completion date of 2006, the array will consist of antennas aligned in 15 columns by 12 rows. The instruments study the effects of naturally occurring anomalies in the Earth's ionosphere that sometimes disrupt communication, navigational and power grid systems-such as region-wide electrical production network.

Dear Lord,
There's a young man far from home,
called to serve his nation in time of war;
sent to defend our freedom
on some distant foreign shore.

We pray You keep him safe,
we pray You keep him strong,
we pray You send him safely home ...
for he's been away so long.

There's a young woman far from home,
serving her nation with pride.
Her step is strong, her step is sure,
there is courage in every stride.

We pray You keep her safe,
we pray You keep her strong,
we pray You send her safely home ...
for she's been away too long.

Bless those who await their safe return.
Bless those who mourn the lost.
Bless those who serve this country well,
no matter what the cost.

God, Bless America!
