I love crusiers...

…just had to share that.

… do you have the urge to marry one? [;)]

Don

Actually, I do…is the San Francisco or New orleans single?

Discussions of cruisers and San Francisco remind me of the Pacino movie “Cruising”, and make me go “ick, ick, ick”! [:|]

Cruisers are cool because they actually fought…they weren’t husbaned and squandered away like most battleships in WW2…

I am in love with destroyers, but occasionally I hvae an affair with a carrier or too…they are good for some lovin, but to high maintinance. [;)]

Submariners in WW2 had the highest loss rate (by percentage) of any military group. Just throwin’ that out there…

I’ll take it further…I like the Japanese Heavy Cruisers, especially the Atago Class.

Okay, that would be a good recruiting slogan—“Join us and die”…

What’s a crusier?

My grandpa said that whenever the German U-boot crew had landlaw in Trondheim, where he lived and I am born, the Germans would go on a drunken rampage. It was just to get as much fun as they could, as they were most likely to die on their next patrol…

I’d have to say I’m a carrier person but I currentley have a Battleship (IJN Yamato) and a Missile Cruiser (CG 48 Yorktown) on the bench.

Where’s the love for battleships? You wouldn’t have crusiers without first the battleships. but you gotta love the aircraft carrier to.

I love the steam trawler, wartime modified with a 75mm, waving a Norwegian flag and going shuttle from Norway to England and back. That is my definite love!

Forgot to ask mate, any particular type thats bought about this feeling or all criuiser in general?

Andrew

More or less like that, with a cannon on the front… [:)]

You also got the better equipped Shetland people, who went in more or less military boats… England to Norway and back and over again… With supplies, commandoes, saboteurs, refugees and more…

I still prefer the trawler!

I also have to agree with Manny… Cruisers are very nice ships…!

The New Orleans class is my favorite…they fought like carzy in WW2. I think half of the class were lost before war’s end and the San Francisco was the most decorated ship in history…

i thought enterprise was?

Enterprise was a carrier.

I love the Indy-class cruisers.
