Tourist, I don't think JTO was really being arrogant, just explaining that he has a maritime attack background, perhaps. I know many on the MBW who took their ASuW role very seriously. Although they didn't get a chance to sink a hulk every day, they took weapon effort planning very seriously and certainly understood well the required tactics and munitions types required to disable, neutralise or deter a surface combatant. Notice I didn't use the word 'sink'.
