And I've been aboard a few of those diesel subs and even ridden a couple of those 2100 tin cans.<br /><br />Gotta tell ya, those guys who rode those things in the South Pacific and the North Atlantic were some tough dudes. And the grunts who fought the Pacific island-hopping campaign were some hardy sonsabitches, too.<br /><br />Every time it got rough on that light cruiser I rode or got hot when I was workin on antennas in the Philippines or got bored when we were making a long transit, I thought of those guys, especially when I rode a typhoon on that flat-bottomed 13-knot spy ship relic all the way from Phu Quoc to Taiwan. <br /><br />"Hardy" ain't the word for 'em. Neither is "rugged," or even "tenacious." I'm gonna go with "incomparable" and downright "gnarly."bocopronoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4114877411975379535.post-77877473044253580892015-11-11T08:00:02.556-06:002015-11-11T08:00:02.556-06:00Good morning, Sunshine...
