andsome Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Isn't this just typical of the Gung Ho attitude of the US military? Are we surprised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4may Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 No surprising really as from prevouis military event, your probably safer being the enemy that an ally where the US military are concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimv7 Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Not the first time.......This is the actual radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995. Radio conversation released by the chief of naval operations, 10-10-95. CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision. AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision. CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision. AMERICANS: This is the captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course. CANADIANS: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course. AMERICANS: This is the Aircraft Carrier US LINCOLN, the second largest ship in the United States Atlantic Fleet. We are accompanied with three Destroyers, three Cruisers and numerous support vessels. I DEMAND that you change your course 15 degrees north. I say again, that's one-five degrees north, or counter-measures will be undertaken to ensure the safety of this ship. CANADIANS: This is a lighthouse. Your call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
