- You know JenoS pizza roll,
-
- I now recall that I indeed had the very plastic model of a USS Seawolf...
- I was about in the 4th grade, maybe 5th...this puts it at about 1966?
-
- Its hull was not like modern nuclears
-
- I remember that it had some kind of sonar dome on in front and was shaped
- more like the nautilus class.. it was the skipjack class that then went
- to the bullet shaped hull....
-
- I dont know how sophisticated the Seawolf class was...Clancy may have
- distorted facts..I know he is a fickle sort and usually gets the most
- minute details ironed out in his stories..
-
- anyway, interesting stuff submarines.. I would prefer to spend my tax
- dollars on food and clothing etc..but there are too many evil jamokes
- running about that I consider nukeable... (just kidding).
-
- later.
