I still agree with T.

Back in the 1970s or early 80's my brother-in-law served on a US Navy nuclear attack submarine named the USS Pogy. Now I know a pogy is a fish. However what the heck kind of name for something as deadly as a nuclear powered attack sub is is Pogy?[:D]

Serving on HMS Decoy would not have filled me with much confidence when the shooting started...

Or USS Crater.

Naming ammunition ships after volcanoes was a particularly inspired move as well...

It's either a frigate class warship or tight woolen underwear worn through a marathon.

That's good! [:D]

The Cockchafer ([:D]) was an Insect-class river gunboat, commissioned in 1916 and scrapped in 1947. Here's a pic of her in 1943:

I've finally got around to playing Aegod's World War One after I bought it about three months ago.  It's interesting if a little bit complicated, the tutorials are terrible and the interface needs some work to figure out what's going on.  The sneaky Boche didn't even bother invading Belgium, they used an alternate warplan to hit France by going through Switzerland [X(]  Luckily the Toblerone armed ones used their chunky chocolate to build some sort of baricades [:D]
