OKAY C...Admiral Nelson just jumped off his column.<br /><br />OKAY CDR. Europe's turning into a continent of wussies, blabbering octogenarians and hatebeards, but five years ago I would have said the US was 25 years behind.<br /><br />RIGHT NOW, I'd say the US is only 15 years behind.

France has sold Exocets indiscriminately all over the world for 3 decades. Recall that USS STARK, FFG-31, was hit by 2 French Exocet anti-ship missiles in 1978. Fired by Iraq's air force.<br /><br />Even more Ironic, CVN Charles Degaulle gets hit by a 2 decade old French Exocet fired from the back of a pickup truck, just like the Exocet that sank a British destroer off the Falklands in 1982. <br /><br />Irony, indeed !Retired Nownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-58343673331975699612011-06-08T16:16:28.791-04:002011-06-08T16:16:28.791-04:00Hey!
