No wonder they were having trouble keeping the bow up. The fact that it survived to me is a miracle!

I didn't know you could make them things sea worthy with blue tarp and duct tape? KUHL! Now I don't feel so bad with all the things I have repaired with those wonderful tools!

Hey FB, aren't you supposed to make sure they can communicate so this doesn't happen and cost us more money?

That is the USS San Francisco I think.<br />It sure took a beating in Guam.<br />The Earth is hard to move, even in a nuclear sub.

Re: Submarine Ran Aground?

inital reports are that it was caused by following innacurate charts. right into the side of a mountain. 1 dead, 60 injured.<br /><br />fb- nmci is the most f'd up system i have ever seen. military is well known for rolling out IT soultions that flop. slower than dirt with zero customer support. hope you can help someone down the road, because the entire program needs it bad right now.

Well, it all boils down to militarys trying to do everything with nothing....it'd be like trying to fly a plane with no windows through moutains with no map...its just damn stupid...
