[QUOTE]Originally posted by ehbowen: [QB] Hmmm. We simply referred to them as deployments. Is there some salty Vietnam-era term I should be aware of, for historical reference at least? Re the Somali pirates: Although we never actually used it, we had a little trick up our sleeve to deal with postulated waves of rubber Zodiac boats from Iran. Imagine a 16" anti-personnel (enhanced shrapnel) high explosive shell detonating precisely 200 feet above a group of open boats by means of a proximity fuse...very quickly, no more open boats. (And they say battleships are obsolete!) [/QB][/QUOTE]
