THE TEAM INVADES NORFOLK - The Worlds largest Naval Shipyard!
With our extra weekend in Portsmouth the team decided to take the Hampton Road Transit Ferry across the Elizabeth River to invade Norfolk. Our first task was to sneak aboard the "Wisky" the largest and most decorated battleship that was in the US Naval fleet. Although, security was tight on BB64 my well trained crew breached the deck and the 16ft guns without compromise. After a full recon mission aboard, and what I'm sure was a Ronald Reagan sighting, we decided we had enough US Naval intelligence to become fully decorated peace time Canadian hero's. However, as we blended ourselves into the landscape to make our retreat home to report our recon findings to our superiors, we stumbled upon a local crab shack serving ice cold brews......Like true Northern Canucks we could not avoid the temptation to wet our whistles with some malted barley and hops. After all we would be hero's upon our return, what could one beer hurt! Well, my fellow Canadians as you know one is one too many and one more is never enough. If it wasn't for our rookie Marine I'm afraid we would have no recollection of our recon mission. Thankfully, the Captain has a recount logged in her scrap book of the BB64 although, we don't feel the information is going to make us Canadian hero's anymore. We hope that our efforts won't go unappreciated in your eyes!
