They Don't Make Navy Men Like This Often
« on: October 10, 2014, 10:46:44 AM »
One heck of a narrative.   Other than the "Long Lance" reference (this is a rather tiresome anachronism).  But otherwise, one heck of a story about a World War II ship skipper...   Shooting at the Japanese while retrieving a car from the dock as a giant middle finger is classic.
