The whole of the Persian Gulf is shallow, averaging only 50 meters. I'm
just guessing, but I wouldn't expect much submarine activity in the Gulf.

Yeah, That happened while our country was still asleep when it
pretained to terrorist.

Try to run a inflatable or small vessel up to any Navy ship and see
what happens.

BTW: The USS Cole sank my ship the USS Samuel Gompers out in the deep
Atlantic as her first training mission after being repaired.

That's a great picture. I particularly like the big American flag.

Was the Gompers a converted ocean liner?

Glory!
