Default "normal" people just dont understand

I think maybe we are a bit different from those others.... not that we play games, which they do.

but to play a shooter leaves you the same... here we LEARN a lot, and most of that lot is History, note the capital H.

Winston Churchill said (hope itīs his quote) that those who dont know their past are bound to repeat it...

While learning we also teach others so we contribute too... and we are all over the world, guys from spain, france, the uk, in brazil, costa rica, belgium, even china....

For instance, in our Pacific Thunder Campaing we have the following

a former air force guy is ComSubPac
a Costa Rican runs the single subron
XO for boats based on Pearl is a former US marine
XO for Manila boats is a Brit
Secure comms officer and programer par excellence is a Doctor from Denmark

and thatīs just the brass

we are truly international and learn to respect each other.

Im proud to be a member of subsim and if Im "weird" for it, so be it, I salute you my fellow sub drivers.
