Brian & Lion

Me posing with my battleship Lion at the January 4, 2007 target practice (turned battle) in Hampton Roads, Virginia. I am grinning because even with only three ships we had one of the hardest fought battles in club history. Jay really made it his mission to sink Lion which made the battle a lot of fun for me.

This meet was scheduled to be a target practice. [Un]fortunately Mark, Jay and I heckled each other into a battle. There were no teams; every man for themself. There is a long standing rivalry between Scheer and Lion and Jay made a great attempt to capitolize on Lion being very out-gunned. Lion took more damage during this battle than the previous five years of combat combined... in the end it was still Scheer that was sitting on the bottom.
