Poor Penguin. Did the capt survive? quote:
ORIGINAL: Charbroiled FIRST MATE: Captain, Guam is being invaded. CAPTAIN: Get the ship underway and let’s get out of here. FIRST MATE: Where are we headed? CAPTAIN: Let’s head to Wake Island. We can find safety there. A couple of days latter: CAPTAIN: It looks like there are plenty of ships here at Wake….maybe one will give us an escort to Pearl. FIRST MATE: Uhhh, Captain, those ships are flying the Japanese flag. CAPTAIN: Damn, it looks like Wake was invaded also…..lets head to Midway. A couple of days latter: FIRST MATE: Captain, Midway is being attacked also….in fact, there is a Japanese Carrier Fleet heading right for us. CAPTAIN: Let’s head Southwest….maybe the carrier will leave us alone and we can swing about and head to Johnson Island. A couple of days latter: CAPTAIN: Whew….we finally made it to Johnson Island and to safety. First mate, take us into port. FIRST MATE: TORPEDOS OFF THE STARBOARD SIDE.!!!!!! CAPTAIN: Oh, crap!!! This is the dialog I pictured would be taking place on the Penguin in one of my PBEM games. The poor ship couldn't find a safe port. Everywhere it went, it found the Japanese. It finally make it to Johnson Island, only to be sunk by a submarine.
