Indeed! Of his recent submissions, I was particularly surprised about the WW1 U-Boat campaign. I don't want to hijack this topic (probably worth a topic on its own), but let just sink such numbers as the U-boat campaign of WW1 with ~350 U-Boats built, sank ~12 million tons of shipping, while ~1150 U-Boats of WW2 sank ~15 million worth of shipping. I never expected the WW1 campaign to be that huge.

"Very sorry, but we've put a hole in your ship. Well, not really sorry since we did it deliberately, but don't take it personally, eh? No hard feelings. Here, have a Moosehead."
SALUTE TO ALL!

I had some Moosehead 40 years ago in Alaska. If Molson is worse than that, I'll pass.
SALUTE TO ALL!

Persian gulf about 2010 or 2011 ...before that Korean War. Did you mean Libya? "On 12 May 2011, HMCS Charlottetown came under fire by small craft off the coast of Libya. This was the first time that a Canadian naval vessel had been under hostile attack since the Korean War."
