| Welcome JKrzos. One of my best friends was a tin can sailor in WWII. It was a sad day when we lost him in `94. He had some great stories about some of their battles in the Pacific. His ship was hit by a Japanese torpedo plane and the torpedo went through the hull and exploded after exiting. The welders just patched the holes and they went back into action. Thank God for the "Great Generation" then and now.
