At random: The Grampus and Pike were commissioned in ceremonies at Mare Island the same day, Thursday, the 28th of May 1903. A young naval officer, Lieutenant Arthur MacArthur III, older brother of General Douglas MacArthur, assumed command for both vessels at the same time.

Let's hear it for Canada. 140 years of expertise at being just North of the United States.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

No nation ever had a better ally, a closer friend or a more constant partner. The bodies of Americans and Canadian service personnel lie side by side in unknown graves in Europe. They represent the sacrifice of life in mutual support of both world wars. If you're a Canadian's "winger", you have a loyal, happy-go-lucky mate. I love Canada and the fair and lovely ladies of her North Atlantic ports...especially the wonderful town of Halifax. So you Canadians have a cold "Bullwinkle"(Moosehead) and enjoy your national BIRTHDAY and thanks RIC for the heads-up, DEX
