Stuart Galbraith Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 You have to look on the bright side, the last POW had it worse...

Sardaukar Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 You always get shafted... (sorry, someone had to say it)
Stuart Galbraith Posted March 13, 2023 Posted March 13, 2023 Boom, tish. The stupid thing is, they already got it right with QE. Quite why they needed to get it wrong with POW when they already figured out the mistakes is another matter. Quite clearly someone needs to be keelhauled, which on an aircraft carrier is some serious shit.

Incidentally, a couple of months ago, JS Inazuma had its screws damaged and screw oil was leaking. She had to be towed back (>.<)

Rick Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 I've always been pleasantly surprised that Japan is now an ally with its former Pacific Ocean enemies.
shep854 Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 But then, everyone was good buddies up through the '30s.
Colin Posted March 21, 2023 Posted March 21, 2023 Japan was tasked to protect the West Coast of Canada in WWI, quite a few "Friendship visits" by Japanese naval vessels up to the 1930's.
