Hi, my question is why would you have an exposed light bulb on a combat ship? One would think that would be dangerous to the crews health....

You guys constantly amaze me at your ability to ID ships.  You'd put WW II bomber pilots to shame.

Playing this game I'm having a growing appreciation for the smaller combatants.  I've always been into aircraft, and had an interest in anything WW II, but I never studied ships in much depth unless they had a flight deck.

I'm not one for the cute gifs, but this one is called for here [&o]

Really? I can't see that! I would certainly have smudged it out had I noticed it. Grrr. If what I think I see is the wall safe, it looks like it's just panted some pale gray on my monitor. No lettering that I can tell.

I'll admit, I thought he was being serious.

I was having flash-backs of when I posted the "Hanger of the battle-damaged Yorktown at Midway" pic. I had forgotten to remove the caption from the photo, so there wasn't much "mystery" to the pic... [8|]
