Also, when you go to the D Convention next year, you can make a placard and wave it around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of a handful of goofy special submarines that exist world-wide, for seabed work. The US used to have a similar one - one of Rickover's pet projects - but it was smaller (crew of 4) and I'm pretty sure has been retired since. It's probably completely unarmed - would be in the US Navy, but the Russians think differently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 FLOTUS's plane just took off from DC too... If they're moving people around to secure locations it sure seems like there's some sort of active threat against the US gov't and personnel... (IF -- too early to tell, but lots of things happening over the past hour and half that should draw our attention) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom (maybe Sherpa) would know more about the Kursk incident, but we tried to rescue them once before but were denied (that's what Hunt for Red October was based on). Putin might be more amenable to a joint rescue op. Had some fun discussions on that one at the time, especially learning the tidbit that if Soviet torpedoes were peroxide powered, their effectiveness would degrade during the sub's deployment. 5 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: FLOTUS's plane just took off from DC too...

Iran is so focused on the Iran-US dynamic, they forgot that it's a multilateral agreement, not bilateral. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC Tom Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 This is a whole lot of nothing. Building security has no alerts, and they definitely would. If something of this magnitude were really happening, I'd see pairs of guards in body armor carrying loaded M-4s patrolling the block (which I've seen before, for much less). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is probably a dumb question, but if there were an alert in your building, would it be frowned upon for you to make that information public?
