    This is the transcript of the ACTUAL radio conversation of a US naval ship with Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995.

    Radio conversation released by the Chief of Naval Operations 10-10-95.

    Canadians: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

    Americans: Recommend you divert your course 15 degrees to the North to avoid a collision.

    Canadians: Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision.

    Americans: This is the Captain of a US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR course.

    Canadians: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.

    Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED By THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, I SAY AGAIN, THAT'S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTERMEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

    Canadians: This is a lighthouse. Your call.

    HAHA

    Quick google search confirms I am speaking bollocks. But we did have 9 casualties from a total of 47 resulting from FF, bit of a large %.

    Yanks are just ignorant, blinkered idiots. One of them saw place of birth: "Glasgow" on my mates passport and said "Glas-gow...you folks Russian?"
