Wow, very cool site. Look at all the other cool stuff on there too.

OH thanks for this Vizzy, it is really cool. I love stuff like that. I always wonder how they do these things too.
Where the hell is 17th Knight? He'd love that shit - he could compare to what he had on his sub when he was in.

It's funny how some of it looks like places in the game medal of honor.

Maybe because the entire MoH series of games is based on reality?
And thanks Vizzy, that is VERY cool. For those who don't know, I'm a WWII junkie. I love the technology, especially Naval, of that time period. I own all the Silent Hunter games (a series of WWII submarine simulations where you play the commander of german subs, though in the more recent SH games you can play americans too!) except the latest one. I also own MoH & MoH:Rising Sun. I also own the Band of Brothers boxed set from HBO, and I plan on getting The Pacific when it comes out. Yeah, I'm a freak.

I had never watched Scarface till after I logged 10,000 hours of play time onto GTA Vice city, Imagine my suprise.
Some day I would like to take a drive out to Chicago and see U-505.

I've been to Chicago many times, but since it was always with someone else driving I've never gotten to go to the U-505

You know I was in Boston last summer for a day, I walked all over hells half acre and walked over to the USS Constitution, it started raining and there was like 150 people in line, I kept on walking.
Stupid me.

I know, I should have stuck it out. Maybe I'll get back one of these days. I will take a tour or two if I ever go back. The people in Boston seemed really pretty nice too, except that guy sleeping in the doorway wrapped in cardboard and newspapers, I sayed away from him.
