Yup the Connie is a tiddler compared to the Big Muthas, but probably still has more firepower on board than our Air Force and protected by a bunch of ships that would give our Navy a run for their money.
Thats not to say that man for man our blokes and blokesses are second to none in professionalism, we just don't have as many.
And thats not counting the 4 kick a&se subs waiting outside to take her home.
Watching them leave harbour the other day, I couldn't help feeling glad they are our mates.
The backdrop to all of this was the beautiful "Amerigo Vespucci" Italian Navy trainng ship, which sorta put some scale on just how far we have come.
I know which one is the most beautiful.
