* Submarine
operations explained
A
shipmate of mine tried his best to explain to a
friend of his (who was a skimmer) about Bubbleheads.
This is the best explanation I've ever seen:
Yes,
on the sub I was on we did do some of the stuff we
did, and we didn't do some of the other stuff we
did, because if we did do it, it was secret, so we
didn't really do it. Even though we did. But not
really.
Those
medals me and my shipmates got that we didn't get
for doing what we didn't do that we did, I really
got those. Except not. But yeah. That's because we
never went where we were, so we weren't there where
we were. And even though we weren't where we were,
we did do the stuff we didn't do while we weren't
there, not doing it.
As
for what boat we were on when we didn't go there on
it, and didn't do the stuff we did while not doing
that either, apparently I'm not supposed to even
mention the USS Grayback
LPSS-574 because I guess I'm
not allowed to refer to the Grayback for security
reasons, so I won't do that. Mention the USS Grayback
LPSS-574 I mean.
The
other stuff, it's okay for me to not mention that
too. So the bottom line is that while we weren't on
the USS Grayback
LPSS-574, which I'm not
going to mention, not doing what we were doing where
we weren't, we didn't do that either. I hope this
clarifies things for ya.
After having re-read the above, the
only thing I can think of that's left to say is that
now you have me scared, because I sound like a
Congressman. But I'm not. I really was a submariner,
though. Can you tell?
