NOTE: Although I am on the sci.military mailing list, I have been receiving an
average of only between one and four issues per week.  The remainder 
apparently go into the ozone.  The problem is undoubtedly with this site; 
numerous problems are routinely reported here.

As a born-and-raised Tulsan, I should add that I believe the _Batfish_ holds 
the record for submarines killed by a submarine (about four or five, I 
think).  There was an account of the _Batfish_'s combat career published a few 
years back.  However, despite the boat's proximity to my ex-home, I've never 
visited it (too many personal problems with the Sons of the Confederacy).  So
far, the only sub I've visited is the U-515 in Chicago.
