The March 2000 issue of National Geographic has an article about U.S. Navy submarines in the Arctic. The lead photo shows a poor half frozen swabee shivering on the conning tower, ice & snow as far as the eye can see. The text says something about standing "polar bear watch." (Er, yeah. Watch this polar bear eat Lieutenant Niedemier while I empty another clip of FMJ into it it). I guess the Navy Department never hear of the .375 H&H. -- Kernel
