I was just aboard the USS Cobia about a month ago, Gato cl*** diesel boat. My father skippered a Service Cl*** boat, USS Toro 422.

 

I have yet to see either one of these boats, but after watching the movie Murphy's War as a kid, I always wanted to hear one of these things run in person.

There is something wrong with you guys that live under the sea. Only ever been in a sub a few times but that was more than enough for me, then you *******s mad us get out while you were still under water!

Doc.

 

Doc, that puts the "Special" in special ops.
