12 years ago today I was in the Red Sea onboard USS Broscoe DD977 and....

[DD977GM2]

I was prepping my launcher and firing Tomahawks on those cocksuckers in Sudan for the embassy bombings.

I was able to press the launch button for "Lucky" #7 bird to fly.

Some tanker was in the direct flight path of the Tomahawks, and kept radioing to us "Please Ammedican Warship, stop firing myssiels at us".
We never responded and kept on firing.

Actual launch looking Forward




Looking AFT
