"Honey, Come Look! This Is One Hell of a Whale..."I must confess that my imagination refuses to see any sort of submarine doing anything but suffocating its crew and floundering at sea. - H G Wells
Source: coasttocoastam.com These photos were sent to them by a ham radio friend. They were taken by Captain Myron Balchin Sr of the Los Angeles-class fast attack submarine USS Honolulu, 280 miles from the North Pole. In other words, the submarine is at the Arctic Circle... Personally, I suspect the men aboard the sub were more excited than the bears. The bears are displaying an impressive curiosity. Afraid of something bigger than they are? Do they LOOK afraid?
