  1. Drachism Of The Day: "(in the US) Do you really want the Bureau Of Ordnance touching your weapons? Probably not. But sometimes you might be forced to." 26:45

  2. Like all large organizations, the USN is guilty of a lot of stupid shit. The USN is particularly BAD at being guilty many many times. There is this example, Captain McVay/Indianapolis, trying to pin the '89 turret explosion on the Iowa on a 'gay' sailor...the list is ugly. BUT...consider the state of the USN on December 6th, '41. Then consider the state of the USN on September 2, '45. Let that sink in for a moment. You have to admit that, on the whole, they did a remarkable job. And they did stupid shit. They still do.
