Naval Manuvers:


This is the transcript of an 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.

>>Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees
to the North
to avoid a collision.

>>Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15
degrees
to the South to avoid 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 USS
LINCOLN,
THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES
ATLANTIC FLEET.
WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE DESTROYERS, THREE
CRUISERS,
AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU
CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, 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. [I]

*shakes head* One by one I will get through reviewing all of these jokes. Okay, I'm not guessing that you have any actual facts to back up the nationalities of these two parties, nor do you have any facts to show that said event actually happened, so this falls under the category of "pointless anti-american garbage". Look, I'm all for bashing the yanks, but come on! There's enough real material out there without having to make shite up... -Rob

this actually did happen rob, not really hard to believe if you've ever experienced the arrogance some of the higher brass in the military have (i have and it's extraodinary; mind you it does help win battles). oh and by the way, you need to lighten up and get laid or something, they're just jokes!

When a nuclear submarine can collide head-on with an undersea *mountain*, is it beyond the pale of possibility that a surface vessel could also make such an error?

Stiffer= moron.

And the U.S.S. Lincoln never operates north of the 49th parallel, fyi.

some people need to get over themselves. this is a joke site not a news site. it's for laughing not educating. I agree with Stiffers...it doesn't matter anyways. If you're here to make corrections your time might be better well spent editing newspapers that claim half bat people are walking around, not trashign some people on a joke site trying to get a few laughs. Besides, if you're so American-y, USofA, why are you even on a Canadian site that obviously is just going to be trashing your precious country? It's called get a hobby. (canadianinus this joke is hilarious whether true or not)

Oh Robby-Roberton... The USS LINCOLN visited the esquimalt base near Victoria Cananda, July 15th to 18th 2004, south of the 49th parallel. Again March 23rd to 26th 2001... and the list goes on.
With smrt guys like you at the helm, quick to pass judgment, this joke seems quite plausible :D

You should hide your face in shame under you hideous flag.
