Wrong, kind elderly Gentleman. It wasn't the "only encryption used by the
USA".

SIGABA (KL-29/BACCUS) was only ONE of SEVERAL encryption systems used by
the USA during WWII. In fact, it wasn't even the most commonly used one
(KL7/ADONIS holds that honor).


The "Sigaba" system (TTY), upgraded to post-WW2 standards
was severely compromised by the capture of the USS Pueblo
off the North Korean coast in 1968.


Wrong again, SIGANDERSON. SIGABA (and it's "upgrades") were retired from
service in 1959, almost a decade before the Lloyd Bucher shamefully struck
his colors to the Koreans..

Hans is typical of radiomen. The more he runs his mouth, the more
his gross ignorance shows. His earlier statement about Morse no
longer being widely taught or used in the U.S. armed forces is but one
case in point. Now he attacks Lloyd Bucher! Is there any doubt
the Navy was correct in disbanding the Radioman rating? Good
riddance! How's the story telling going down at the Legion Hall
Hans?

Jim asked what difference it makes if he served or not? Soldiers

die.

So do construction workers who build bases, or mechanics that
manufacture tanks.

The fact of the matter is that except in the most aggrevious
warfare, more Americans die on the highways at home than do

Servicemen.

And heroes all of them, defending the country.

"""Sorry Hans, a run-over Jay-Walker IS a Veteran!!!""" Hi!

You've been asked this before, I am asking again: WHAT LAW

DID
BRIAN KELLY VIOLATE BY NOT SERVING IN THE ARMED FORCES...?!?!


Kellie lied about it. He claimed to have "real military service."


You'll have to show me that one, Brain.

I've seen where he's said he worked WITH the Armed Forces, but
never "I was in..."


It was in a brag-tape challenge to one of the rra.misc cretins. You
guys tend to attract the wrong element to rrap.

It was never "changed" to an Honorable, Lennie. It was

Honorable
all along. I was discharged.


Was Kelly discharged? Jim?


I ams till trying to figure out your point here.


"Just answer the man's question."

Tsk. I can digitize my 1960 HONORABLE discharge...(SNIP)

Sure you can. Two problems, though. One, you've already

done
the
"I am going to send you an e-mail" trick wherein you DIDN'T send

what
you promised you were going to do.


Why do you use the word "promised?" Is it a cheap Robeson trick to
make greater your injury?


Nope.

Because he lied. An Anderson trick, but not an uncommon one.


I've yet to see Len say, "Steve, I promise..." Ever.

So why do you say that he promised? My OPINION is that he did not
promise, and you lied about it. Why do I think that? Because it fits
you to a T.

Trust blown.

Secondly, as I have said over an over, I don't doubt that

you
have
an "Honorable" discharge. But what I HAVE said over and over

it's
HOW
YOU DISGRACED YOUR SERVICE WITH YOUR SELFISH USE OF OTHER'S

SACRIFICES
THAT MAKE YOU THE SCUMBAG YOU ARE!


Didn't people who didn't serve make selfish use of other's

sacrifices?

Oh come on, Burke...Building upon the sacrifices others made is
one tthing...That's how America got to BE America.


They had ample opportunity to serve. Jim says he "served in other
ways." Kelly says he has "real military experience."

Your "mentor" intentionally tried to get away with making it
appear as though HE had "served" with the Soliders who were KIA.

THAT is DISGUSTING.


Perhaps you got it wrong. Perhaps he served with soldiers that
SURVIVED IN ACTION. I know I did.

You also "did it" when you tried to embellish YOUR "record"

with
the deaths of Soldiers who died in combat before you were even
inducted.


What? No marines ever died in combat prior to your service? You
enlisted because it was safe and you knew you'd get back in one

piece
(didn't happen, did it?)


I never tried to convince anyone that I was somehow involved

in a war that happened 3 years before I was enlisted.


You tried to convince us that you were involved in 7 hostile actions
that never occurred.

Jim asks what difference serving or not serving in the military

makes?
I'd like to see you explain it to him.


It DOESN'T matter...It's NOT the law, and not every person was
meant to be a Soldier or Marine.


Now you are telling me that your service didn't matter. Hans' service
didn't matter. Len's service didn't matter. Roll's service didn't
matter. Morgan's service didn't matter.

Get some mental help, Psychotic Pstevie. You need it.

Not even remotely as much as you, old man.


Let the professionals make that determination.


I am one of the professionals, Brian. Licensed.


Wrong.

Yeh, yeh. You talked on a radio. Is that what you're calling a
hostile action? Did the radio topple off the field desk and dent your
spit-shined boot?

That's right, Gunny. You can't trust anyone. That's one sign of a

Er, Brian, Psychotic Pstevie NOW says his discharge was

Gosh, I wonder if some medical tech ever did a culture
on what was in that "discharge?" [might be a medical
breakthrough! :-) ]

Pstevie doesn't drink? Gosh and golly, from the looks
of things in here, I think he strains out the pickles
(KOSHER of course) from those jars and enjoys the dill
juice. Keeps his "Gunnery Sgt command voice" in the
proper sour tone, the lips pursed in proper Dill

Sweetums, I have an HONORABLE discharges from military

Yes, you do. But it's your self-serving use of the deaths of
others for your own glorification that dishonored whatever you DID

do
good, Lennie.


Jim asked what difference it makes if he served or not? Soldiers die.


Pstevie MUST get his "insult quotient" of the day in. He
MUST "avenge" his "outrage" (at being caught LYING to
others and not having his brags believed). The original
thread subject is of no consequence to Pstevie. He MUST
take REVENGE!!! :-)

Quite so...soldiers, sailors, airmen may ALL die in the
performance of their military duty. MAY. All of us who
wore the uniform know that, in greater or lesser degree
depending on the individual. We do honor those who
gave their lives...or who had their lives taken from
them in the course of duty.

"Civilians" (those who never served in the military)
don't have a rapport with that. They only have the
emotional, second-hand viewing of movies, TV, and
published accounts, at best a vicarious "experience"
based only on their emotional take on it. Because of
that emotion-only input, they cannot comprehend
being IN any such situation. Because their input is
only second-hand and emotional, they will confuse that
with whatever other emotions they have. A case in
point is Jimmie's apparent glorification of morse
code use on radio in WW2 with warfare itself. All
grand and glorious but the warfare happening well
before his lifetime. He can't really comprehend what
it means to be IN a true warfare situation OR in a
military situation of any kind. He has no baseline
from which to judge. At best, all he can do is an
intellectual exercise of words, of imagination, so
that he can give the appearance of "knowing" what it
is like.

Now we've got Psychotic Pstevie who claims "insult"
that others can actually honor those who died in the
performance of their military duties...especially
those of the same military unit. Jimmie has NO
sense of "unit cohesiveness" that grows in every
military unit, the bond of all who serve in a unit.
Such a bond is not easily explainable in words but
it can be felt deep inside. It is visceral, deep
in the psyche. It can't be fully realized until
one has done it.

Psychotic Pstevie the Psonofabitch perverses such
honoring of a unit's dead in order to produce his
interminable insult-throwing. He is a special case,
perhaps one who should be IN a case, locked away.
When I've stood Retreat at sundown with the special
order of honoring those 19 of the 71st Battalion who
died on 1 July 1950, I was not thinking ahead to
many years later of "bragging" about personal
exploits. Those 19 were ALL "rear area"
communications Signalmen; the 71st served the Far
East Command Headquarters directly and General
Mac had ordered that group to Korea to reinforce
the partly overrun communications system at the
start of the Korean War. Their transport crashed
on landing, killing not only them but also the
four in the aircrew. Stuff happens and none of
them expected that. Army Central Command honored
two of the 19 by naming the Battalion's billet as
Hardy Barracks, later the new transmitter site as
Camp Tomlinson. That is the best that the military
can do besides the "insurance" money and consoling
of their families. The media had not yet come up
with "body counts" of the later Vietnam War, that
sorry excuse to make warfare sound like some pro
football game...which it definitely is not.

Jimmie and Pstevie have made much of "rear area"
military service, as if that is a disreputable
thing. About six out of seven military personnel
ARE "rear area" and not DIRECTLY involved in
actual "battle." Yet, with the mobility of
modern warfare ANY ONE of those six may be thrust
into some kind of "battle" or, in the case of the
19 from the 71st Signal Battalion, dying for no
cause of theirs or the enemy. "Rear area" service
is necessary to prosecute the mass logistics of
warfare...to coordinate supplies arriving to
replenish consumables, to get reinforcements or
replacements...even to perform ground service on
aircraft such as helicopters. None of us "rear
area" personnel are expected to be "in the thick
of battle" (as Jimmie may think, never having
served and getting input only from mass media).
We did our tasks as assigned, following the orders
passed down along chain of command. We did our
DUTY and took pride in what we did, even if we
didn't get our names in magazines or amass "scores"
to show "how good/superious" we were. Most of us
survived to continue life outside of the military.

A few of us "lucked out" in doing our duty, such
as my getting assigned to a big communications
station. I had NO hand in getting such, had to
accept what happened. Some, like myself, availed
themselves of the opportunity to learn, to grow in
knowledge of communications arts, technology.


You've been asked this before, I am asking again: WHAT LAW DID
BRIAN KELLY VIOLATE BY NOT SERVING IN THE ARMED FORCES...?!?!


Kellie lied about it. He claimed to have "real military service."


Kellie once said he had "26 patents." Actually,
he had only ONE, the other 25 being grants in
other countries for the SAME patent. Same as
I did although my single patent may have had 28
foreign grants; exact number varied depending on
who was contacted at RCA Corporation Legal.


It was never "changed" to an Honorable, Lennie. It was

Honorable
all along. I was discharged.


Was Kelly discharged? Jim?


They "served in other ways."

However, Pstevie contradicted himself. In here, Pstevie
said he had a Medical discharge "from an accident."
Discharges for enlisted personnel are either Honorable,
Dishonorable, or Medical.

Tsk. I can digitize my 1960 HONORABLE discharge...(SNIP)


Sure you can. Two problems, though. One, you've already done

the
"I am going to send you an e-mail" trick wherein you DIDN'T send

what
you promised you were going to do.


Poor Psycho Pstevie, still ANGRY over another accident.
He neglected (deliberately) to say that he was sent the
correct file later, not once but twice. Pstevie was SO
angry and upset that he REFUSED to look at the correct
file. [his RAGE is legendary...]

Why do you use the word "promised?" Is it a cheap Robeson trick to
make greater your injury? Hi!


Pstevie thinks ALL exist to SERVE HIM! :-)

Pstevie is a warlord-wannabe (or some kind of self-
professed nobility person) who demands OBEDIANCE
from those he threatens.


Secondly, as I have said over an over, I don't doubt that you

have
an "Honorable" discharge. But what I HAVE said over and over it's

HOW
YOU DISGRACED YOUR SERVICE WITH YOUR SELFISH USE OF OTHER'S

SACRIFICES
THAT MAKE YOU THE SCUMBAG YOU ARE!


Didn't people who didn't serve make selfish use of other's sacrifices?


Psycho Pstevie the Psonofabitch would think that my
periodic placement of flags on veteran's graves is an
INSULT!!! He may think that placing my hand over my
heart (in civilian salute) to the flag of the USA is an
INSULT!!!

Pstevie makes Memorial Day less memorable...


You also "did it" when you tried to embellish YOUR "record"

with
the deaths of Soldiers who died in combat before you were even

inducted.

What? No marines ever died in combat prior to your service? You
enlisted because it was safe and you knew you'd get back in one piece
(didn't happen, did it?)


The USMC uniform was pretty...two colors of blue,
white hat, flashy red stripe on the outside of each
trouser, shiny chromed SWORD! Wowee!

Pstevie says I was "inducted." ERROR. I volunteered.
I was sworn into service. There's a difference.

In the 50s the Army had its own "ASN" or Army Serial
Number. Mine was RA 16 408 336. The "RA" prefix stood
for "Regular Army" and denoted volunteer enlistment.
Draftees (those inducted) had "US" prefixes, standing
for "Army of the United States." Activated National
Guard had "NG" prefixes. Commissioned officer ASN
prefixes were simply "O."


Jim asks what difference serving or not serving in the military makes?
I'd like to see you explain it to him.


I wonder if Pstevie will order him to "GET DOWN AND
GIVE ME TWENTY!!!" :-)


Get some mental help, Psychotic Pstevie. You need it.


Not even remotely as much as you, old man.


Let the professionals make that determination.


Pstevie gonna say "HE has the 'professional qualifications!'"

:-)

Pstevie still hasn't "picked up the phone to tell
'authorities' to come pick me up for mental stuff!"
He said he "could do that" (apparently by the powers
that be in Pstevieland).

Steve, K4yz


What about your claim of seven hostile actions?


Pstevie gave his life for his country seven times?

He must have cat DNA...but only two lives left!

Psychotic Pstevie should call the VA and ask them
who had ASN RA16408336. Tsk. Not a "tall tale."
Getting tired of the Psychotic One going on his
HATE binges. I thought U.S. ham radio was all about
good fellowship and friendly helping of those who
don't know about radio?

Not in Pstevie's back yard. :-)

What brags, Len? Look at American foreign policy since the
end of the USA's involvement in Vietnam. Plenty of "hostile
actions" for active-duty, career military personnel to be a part of in
a variety of roles.

And that's just the "hostile actions" we civilians know about.


How does that tie in with the use of morse code in
museum windows?

Oh, yes, Jimmie Noserve KNOWS all about "hostile
actions." Sure...READING about them, WATCHING
movies and TV. Wow!


To my knowledge, Steve has never stated that DOD does not
direct MARS.


His claim is that if there were no radio amateurs, there'd
have been no MARS program. In that, he is correct.


Bull****.


Well, you're certainly the authority on *that* subject, Len! ;-)


I know TRUTH as opposed to snow-job braggadoccio.

Psycho Pstevie is an "extra class" snow-jobber.

And, mister wizard, you REWROTE what Robeson wrote.

"Sorry, Hans, MARS IS amateur radio."

In NO way did Pstevie write what YOU say he wrote.
In NO way did Pstevie's single sentence say what
you IMPLY it did. He is NOT "correct."


MARS always was and remains a MILITARY radio system.


But most of the participants aren't in the military.


How do YOU know? Are you now working for the Army
MARS Hq at Fort Huachuca? Or any of the other service
branch MARS Headquarters? Didn't you READ the DoD
directive visible to anyone on the given link?



Haw, that's funny. Len, you pretty much come unglued at the slightest
opposition to your cherished statements, or when
someone refuses to feed your insult machine.


"Insult machine?" Jimmie Noserve wants the exclusive
use of that "machine?"

Oh, yes, that ties right in with a Canadian museum
having morse code in its window...sure...


If you ain't got the guts to
tell the details, you AIN'T done it. Simple as that.


Then you must think that Brian Burke, N0IMD-allegedly-/T5, "ain't done
it", because he won't give any details about his amateur radio
operation in Somalia.


Then you must be as nuts as Psycho Pstevie. Tsk.

Pstevie pervertedly pejorated hisself at least a
couple orders of magnitude with his alleged
"poor repfit" of NADC on my visit there 34 years
ago...and is still trying (vainly) to rationalize
his LIE as some kind of "truth."

I'm just showing what a damn LIAR he is. But,
Pstevie is your BUDDIE and therefore can do NO
wrong. He is PCTA extra Double Standard class
and can therefore say ANYTHING he wants in
your complete approval.


Orwell did a good job describing the subjective reality mindset in his
classic "1984". You remind me of "Big Brother", Len, in the way you
want to rewrite history to fit your mindset.


Pizz off, sweetie. You are going hot and heavy
into this personal insult thing and Brian Burke is
NOT a part of it.

If a person does something, they've done it whether they talk about it
or not. Or whether you believe it or not. Simple as that.


Tsk. Turn your phrase around. If a person TALKS
about something, that isn't "proof" that they've
DONE it. :-)

Psycho Pstevie still hasn't come up with a SINGLE
detail of "proof" on his insult of my "fitrep" at
NADC.


And if K4YZ really did participate in seven hostile actions,
then it happened regardless of whether details are given or not.


HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT IS TRUTH? :-)

You've NEVER served OR done any "hostile actions"
other than petty intellectual arguments on Internet.


No, Len, that's not true. FCC is involved - but you're not FCC.


James P. Miccolis is NOT FCC. :-)

Amateur radio manufacturers are involved - but you're not one
of them, either.


James P. Miccolis is NOT a "manufacturer of radios."

You're not involved.


OH! "Not involved!!!"

The U.S. Government gives me the RIGHT to vote, on
anything up for a vote!

I am NOT "involved in government" yet I can vote on
government officials! [really!]

I am NOT "involved" in any of the proposals to be
voted on yet I can VOTE on them!

Wow! I'm "not involved" in so many things!!!!

BULL****, sweetums. The FCC determines who gets a
radio license and sets the standards. The ARRL does
NOT. Jimmie Noserve does NOT. Davie Heil does NOT.
The "ham community" does NOT. It's the FCC, sweetie.
[and that's the absolute truth...pbthththt]

The "F" in FCC stands for "Federal." That means that
ANYONE can make themselves and their opinions known to
them (see the 1st Amendment of the U.S. Constitution).
The FCC does NOT limit itself to amateur regulation
input SOLELY from amateurs. It isn't an exclusive
clubhouse...even though you try to convey that idea.

Who? Not you, of course. You're not involved.


What? Paradoxical. According to that, one can't
get INTO amateur radio WITHOUT being "involved,"
BUT...to BE "involved" one has to ALREADY be IN
amateur radio.

Tsk. If you don't like paradoxes, all you are doing
is trying to make it all into a private clubhouse.
Sorry, the Communications Act of 1934 took that away
when the FCC was created to regulate ALL civil radio
in the USA. ALL, Jimmie.



Len knows more about radio operation.


Tsk. I know HOW they work and the protocols needed
in some radio services.


But not amateur radio. Not Morse Code. Your knowledge is all theory,

no
practice, when it comes to amateur radio. Sidewalk superintendent
stuff. All hat and no cattle, all talk and no action.


Okay, so you DON'T think that amateur radio works by
the same principles of physics as all other radio
services. Electrons, fields, and waves all work in
in an "amateur fashion" if you have an AMATEUR radio
license! An AMATEUR radio "won't work" unless it has
a valid, certificated amateur radio operator operating
it? Wow. Learn something every day.

Well, no sweat. Someone who doesn't KNOW the "ham way"
should be FIRED, right? Give up their ham job? Be
prosecuted if they don't behave according to YOUR set
of regulations?

Sweetie, I've designed and built those "sidewalks,"
and the "buildings" they are in front of, done the
"civil engineering" testing on those "buildings" to
make sure they are in-spec. Let your aphorisms fly
where they may Luke Skysulker, "may the aphorism be
with you!"

You did some articles for a now-long-defunct New England-based ham
radio magazine 22+ years ago. None of them were about building or
operating an amateur radio station.


Poor baby. Still sulking about NOT getting published
in anything but "Electric Radio?" :-)

Still ****ed because I was an Associate Editor there,
and so listed on their masthead?

Awwww...the opportunity could have been YOURS, sweetie.

Better luck, next time.



Other than
that, Jimmie do NOT say squat. He afraid others
find out?


Why no, Len. I'm not "afraid" of others finding out. I just choose not
to give out that information.


Can't blame you. :-)

Who did you vote for in the presidential elections of 2000 and 2004,
Len?


Where there RADIO issues proposed by the candidates
then? I watched the debates on TV rather than listening
to the radio. Fill me in.

HOW is such information REQUIRED to discuss amateur radio
regulations and how to get INTO amateur radio by licensing?

WHO did you VOTE for in Canada on their last election?

Are you "afraid" to say? :-)


The U.S. military did NOT use morse code in long-distance
fixed-point to fixed-point communications a half century
ago and still don't.


Even if that's true - what does it matter to amateur radio policy?


Sorry, Jimmie, under YOUR "rules," if I SAID it, then
it must be true! :-)

Actually, it IS true, but YOU are AFRAID to find out.
The fantasy that the rest of the radio world "still
uses morse code" is way too strong a mental narcotic
for you. You can't go cold turkey.

Amateur radio isn't the US military.


MARS is military. "Sorry, Hans, MARS IS amateur
radio!" :-)

Amateur radio is NOT Private Land Mobile Radio Service.

Amateur radio is NOT Mass Media Radio Service.

Amateur radio is NOT Maritime Radio Service.

Amateur radio is NOT Aviation Radio Service.

Amateur radio is NOT Personal Radio Service.

Etc.


Tsk. Some of you olde-tyme hammes
need to get your noses out of old WW2 surplus radio books
and inspect the rest of the radio world.


Is that an order?


Are you afraid to take orders? Is that why you never
volunteered for military service? :-)

Why should what other radio services do be more important to amateur
radio policy than what hams do?


Why should amateur radio policy be dictated SOLELY by
already-licensed radio amateurs? That's in direct
VIOLATION of both the 1st Amendment and the Communications
Act of 1934.


I see. Well, Len, you have the thinnest skin of all those here,

because
you get insulted by *any* opposition..


What "opposition?" :-)

There's Jimmie Noserve who likes to make out that he
KNOWS ALL about the military...but never served.

There's a psycho-sick whacko inventing "fitreps" about
me that never happened...

There's a few more and have been lots more. Not a
problem. Lots of you knowitalls and control freaks on
the Internet who "get off" on being "superior" on their
screens. Tsk. Been that way since computer-modem
communications got going over three decades ago. :-)

Who did you vote for in the presidential elections of 2000 and 2004,
Len?


Maybe I've forgotten! :-)

What Prime Minister candidate did you vote for in
Canada, Jimmie?

What military did you serve in up in Canada, Jimmie?

Did you do any morse code in their military?

Were you in any Canadian "hostile actions?"

Or did you forget?

How did the Morse-o-Meal taste this morning?

[have some crow for supper...]

Amateur radio is NOT Maritime Radio Service.


But Amateur Radio is routinely carried aboard both commercial and
pleasure vessles of many types...Including warships of the United
States Navy...So sayeth the FCC AND the Deaprtment of Defense.

Amateur radio is NOT Aviation Radio Service.


But with the permission of the pilot-in-command, Amateur Radio
activities may be conducted from both private and commercial
aircarft...So sayeth the FCC AND the FAA.

Amateur radio is NOT Personal Radio Service.


But Amateur Radio may be rotinely used for many of the same
purposes of the Personal Radio Service...So sayeth the FCC...

So...so far we have at least three federal agencies telling us
that Amateur Radio CAN be used under all of the flags above that Lennie
said Amateur Radio "wasn't".

Sheeeesh.

Leonard H. Anderson is a putz. A loser again...\

The only encryption used by the USA
(and Canada as well as the UK) was the "Sigaba" as shown
on the USS Pampanito floating museum and at the NSA
on-line Museum.


Wrong, kind elderly Gentleman. It wasn't the "only encryption used by

the USA".

SIGABA (KL-29/BACCUS) was only ONE of SEVERAL encryption systems used

by the USA
during WWII. In fact, it wasn't even the most commonly used one

(KL7/ADONIS
holds that honor).


Of course it's "wrong," you are always "right." :-)

Never had a crypto clearance in the service, certainly
not in WW2. You have one then? [of course you did...]

Have to "dot the i and cross the t" to the EXACT
number or else be sentenced to a capital-crime
felony in here? :-)

All I know is the basic principle of the system,
obtained in a couple of interesting books by
CIVILIANS! :-) Also an article by the Chief
Cryptographer of the U.S. Army...a civilian! :-)


The "Sigaba" system (TTY), upgraded to post-WW2 standards
was severely compromised by the capture of the USS Pueblo
off the North Korean coast in 1968.


Wrong again, SIGANDERSON. SIGABA (and it's "upgrades") were retired

from
service in 1959, almost a decade before the Lloyd Bucher shamefully

struck his
colors to the Koreans..


No problem, Super Chief. :-)

Until around 1964 I didn't KNOW the EXACTNESS of
the systems or even how it was done. The crypto
stuff would roll in looking for all the world as
way-off-bias-distortion-prone TTY on any standard
TTY...on what I saw in the Army.

I'm sure you think that the Army sent everything
"in clear" using morse code (to confuse the 'enemy')
and all that. That's another subject of course and
I'm not allowed to talk of that; I need an AMATEUR
RADIO license in order to talk about military/all-
Navy encryption. :-)

The system used then was a "rotor" type (familiar
name). Essentially a set of rotary switches turning
at different rates (according to key settings, crypto
key, not key on a manual keyboard operation). Those
rotary switches ("rotors") scrambled the normal TTY
in synchronism with the TTY motor and would also
UN-scramble received TTY. Neat thing about that,
even with the "wrong" name and all the EXACT number
and letter designators, was that NOBODY COMPROMISED
IT! Sunnuvagun!

Lots and lots of cryptologists and historians have
tried to see if anyone compromised it on any intercepts
during WW2 and somewhat afterwards (I won't say the
EXACT year because you want to snarl and argue about
it if I do) but haven't come up with anything yet.

Of course you are on this wonderful, traditional,
"do or die," "death before dishonor" bull**** attitude
in regards to Commander Bucher. Riiiiight...the USN
thoughtfully "armed" the USS Pueble with a single
machine gun and a few personal arms of some of the
personnel. NOT ENOUGH destruct flares on board to
destroy equipment. Pueblo was surrounded in shallow
water...not a big problem to have NORTH Korean divers
raise enough equipment to sell to the USSR. But...
"being there" (in your heart) you would want everyone
to FIGHT TO THE LAST MAN! Wow, lot of "good" that was
goint to do.

By the way, since you are so picky-picky about EXACT
names and things, the USS Pueblo was captured by
NORTH Koreans. Korea isn't unifed yet, hasn't been
since the USSR jumped in on the tailboard of WW2 and
"occupied" the North and sticking in their communist
government ideas there. As a separate Korean nation,
that is.

The crew of the USS Pueblo (officially a USN ship,
an "oceanographic research vessel" according to our
government) pretty much survived captivity. [do
you need an EXACT body count?] Bucher survived.
But, Bucher died not too long ago. No problem for
you, huh? The USN didn't haul him up for any courts
martial. He was allowed to retire. [you were allowed
to retire, right?]

CWO Walker, USN, STOLE whole technical manuals (by
photographic copying) and Key Lists while SERVING in
the USN. Sold the material to the USSR. Walker was
eventually caught, tried, and sentenced to life in a
federal pen. [do you need the EXACT details on that,
too, and if no one supplies them, are they "all
wrong?"] Walker is STILL ALIVE! Sunnuvagun!

You don't posit that as a "terrible thing," do you?
You want to try and convict (in absentia) a USN
commissioned officer stuck in an untenable position
in his command...but you don't give a **** about
ANOTHER USN officer, a Warrant, doing deliberate
TREASON while SERVING! That's okay?

73, de Hans, K0HB
Master Chief Radioman, US Navy


Good grief, you didn't "cross the tee" in your
manuevers properly. You should have pointed out
that the USN closed down ELF transmitters in Clam
Lake, WI, and Republic, MI, at the end of September
2004!!! No more 76 Hz at 1 MW. [too many in the
U.S. north country want to "save the environment"
and "preserve world peace" by withholding the use
of *nuclear* (horrors!) missles] Riiiight...76 Hz
is terribly harmful to the ecology they think!

Tsk, tsk! You could have had a FINE time doing the
pillory bit on me...but you NEGLECTED to do so!

Missle submarines and attack submarines have to use
alerts from VLF stations NAA, NLK, NPM, NML, NAU,
NRK, NWC...frequencies from 19.8 to 40.8 KHz. But,
I almost hesitate to list those since you will NO
DOUBT want the EXACT details, the EXACT locations,
and the EXACT mode, protocol, and all that...or ANY
listing is TOTALLY WRONG!!! :-)

Cool it, Master super-duper Chief (USN). I'm still
a citizen of the U.S. of A. and served in MY
country's (USA) military BEFORE you did. I know
that doesn't count for much in this din of inequity
but it's all I got. :-)

By the way, for EXACTNESS, my surname was NEVER
"SIGANDERSON." You made a "mistake" but I won't
hold anything against you. Well, maybe a bayonet
or such... :-)

Temper fry...

He shouldn't be.

Of course Lennie's reading the riot act to someone about
experience and "seniority", yet is first and loudest to cry foul if
Amateurs point out HIS lack of "experience and seniority".

"SIGANDERSON." You made a "mistake" but I won't

And Lennie, always quick to find SOME "threat" in anything,
blatantly threatens Hans with a bayonet.

Why am I not surprised?

Temper fry...
