At random: "I propose to you a new arm of war, as formidable as it is economical. Submarine navigation, which has been sometimes attempted, but as all know without results, owing to want of suitable opportunities, is now a problematical thing no more." - Brutus de Villeroi in a letter to President Lincoln, 1862

I just picked up the book Depths of Courage which was co-authored by Ron Smith. It is a great read. Throughout the book there are stories of Ron's activities during the war. It truly is a must read.

I feel fortunate to have seen Ron and his lovely wife Georgianna at Ft. Worth. I got a real kick out of him... his mind was still very sharp. We exchanged some "I told you so's" and a few "you were right"s concerning certain political folks and issues.
