US Navy
This is a transcript of an ACTUAL radio communication between a U.S. NAVY ship and Canadian authorities off the cost of Newfoundland, October 1995. Radio log released by the Chief of Naval Operations 10/10/95:
CANADIANS: Please divert your course 15 degrees South to avoid collision.
AMERICANS: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees North to avoid a collision.
CANADIANS: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.
AMERICANS: This is the captain of a U.S. Navy ship. I say again, divert.
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. I SAY AGAIN, 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.

Sailors and infantrymen must be acquaintances! A army guy and a militia guy are driving opposite instructions on a curvy mountain highway. the army guy hits a patch of sand, swerves, and nails the army guy's truck. They the two go out their automobiles without injuries, yet their automobiles are ruined. Now, the contest between military and army is definitely time-commemorated, so of direction a heated argument accompanied. Then without notice the army guy replaced heart and reported, "carry on, it is dumb. It became an twist of destiny. enable's positioned this opposition at the back of us." the army guy agreed this became a solid concept. So the army guy presented, "Why do no longer we celebrate our new friendship over a 5th of vodka? I actually have a bottle interior the truck." the army guy concept this became an surprising concept. So the army guy, being a gentleman, presented the army guy the 1st drink, and advised the army guy to drink as much as he needed. quickly 0.5 the bottle became long gone and he presented the bottle back to the army guy who reported, "thank you, yet i'm going to attend till at last after the police officers get right here!"

I remember hearing that. It was a good thing I was parked outside a store I laughed so hard. I wish I had a tape recorder. At first I thought it was a joke, then found out it was real.
Thanks for bringing back a good memory.
