That is not nice considering she served both in the European theatre and the Pacific theatre.
Now clearly you've been on the forum to get the "Bob" joke. [:-][:D]
I am afraid I have not been on this forum enough so I didn't get the joke. [:(]
It is only recently that I have had the energy to delve deeper into this forum. So I lost out.
Edit: I suspected that it was some sort of joke but I had no clue. So I attempted to give a clue about the ship at the same time as I fumbled the joke.
And now I do not even know what I am writing. [:D]
Many years ago , a much beloved denizen of the original "The Thread!!!!" created a thread that he called "Bob", so that he and the other players in his "2x2" PBEM could inform each other of who's turn it was. This became the source of much amusement over the years. "I think I'll name this thread BOB" has often used as the punchline when some one says "name this fred". This fellow , known as "the penguin" , or his log-in name of Fabertong , started a procedure to see who can get his post as the top one of "THE THREAD"'s next page. (AKA as a UNP). His particular technique was to do a chain of posts, one right after the next , usually with one word, spelling a message. In the USA this is called "A Burma shave sign" after a 1940's road way advertising trick of one sign after the other , each containing part of the message , ending with "use Burma shave!".
Sorry for assuming you'd been around long enough (from the date of your joining and the post count) to be familiar with this. [8|]
