I'm working on upgrading on old scenario. A Red search aircraft has detected a Blue surface group, and visa versa. There are Red submarines in the area of the contact, but watching with the Cheat Key, it seems that they don't seem to make any kind of move to intercept but keep following thier pre-programed courses. Is this the proper behavior according to the programming, or is there something wrong with this scenario?

Post-it it is, then. Thanks.

I can't seem to find the video on line. Can someone provide a link?

Tony; I went to use the Issue Tracker this morning and saw all sorts of other issues. I can't remember when I got an update: I guess I blightly assumed all was well on the bug front until I encountered one. Anyhow, I figured figured my subscription had been cancelled somehow, but when I tried to re-up, it said my subscription was still active. Can you look into it?

Well, Gol-ola-lee, Sergeant Carter. Thanks, Brad. I reclassified it.

An article in the Washington Post implies that he sent the message on his own initative. I remember all the way back to Walter Lord's DAY OF INFAMY (required reading for freshman history in 1967!) that Admiral Pat Bellinger (d. 1962) wrote up the message and had it sent. There was even some question over the wording - was it "NO DRILL" or "NOT DRILL"? By the way, Billings MT, is the home town of David Thatcher, the "Ruptured Duck" gunner from "30 Seconds Over Tokyo".

Before they got the 3 ILLUSTRIOUS, I remember reading that the Royal Navy had been reduced to an ASW force in the North Atlantic. I guess it's deja vu all over again. By the way, what happens to the former Harrier pilots?

Yike! That sure was a big hunk of salary then. Very nice article, well worth a look; and thumbing through the pages was fun, too. Check out the 360 Pacific blurb on page 88.

"I wonder how many of todays PC users could format the HDD on an old XT machine and get DOS up and running on it..." I wonder how many of today's PC users even know what you're referring to. P.S. Found a bunch of diskettes from an old job the other day. Wonder what's on them? P.P.S. Still have a Commodore 128 up and running at my Dad's house.

Yes, we old hands know that there are things that don't work as well as we would like, but I have never found it to be "one of the most bug riddled broken pieces of software on the market" (although the original DOS version was a real pain to play!) . Perhaps, shep1978, downloading the latest patch might help things out?

Just been out of the loop for a while; still plenty to go.

It's hard to take a posting like this very seriously, lacking any kind of specific input...

Yeah, man. When I was a kid, TV stations would use shorts provided by the DOD to fill in time early in the AM. One of the "WOW" ones was about the "3 T's at Sea" - Terrier, Talos, and Tartar. I always prefered the Terrier for some reason.
