US Naval Communications...........

[C'DaleRider]

This is the transcript of an ACTUAL radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October, 1995.

Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.

Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy Ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

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, THAT'S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER-MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

Canadians: We are a lighthouse. Your call.

Just because the person who started the chain letter says it's true, doesn't mean you should believe it.

 

[Mermaidman]

You typed it out instead of the (previously posted) audio link?

 

How many times do we have to read this crap? Jeebus i have seen it on ATOT atleast 20 times.

 

[TMPadmin]

Repost too.

 

[DaFinn]

WELCOME TO 1995...

 

[Kibbo]

But it's still funny.

 

[Armitage]

I've heard this so many times, in so many variants. It was funny maybe the first half-dozen times.

 

[Hammer]

kill yourself and all other people that believe forwards.

 

[rudder]

Did you forward this to 10 people in 10 minutes? Otherwise you are in deep crap for the next 7 years.

There should be an automatic post count reduction by about 1,000 posts for something like this..

this is older than the internut, i heard a version after joining the Navy in 1986 from some "old salty dog" sailors

 

[jwells777]

Does anybody know where I can find the video version of this joke that was posted here on ATOT a couple of years ago?

 

[GagHalfrunt]

How can somebody who has been a member here for 5 years still be dumb enough to post this crap? Not posting e-mail forwards is something even most AOL rejects learn in their first week here.

Still very funny. What's your point?

 

[Jfrag Teh Foul]

Could someone pop in a Duran Duran cassette to make this post topic feel at home?

 

[jwells777]

Nobody has a link to the video of this?
