I spy!

[greenman407]

Ah, you cheated. Dude:biggrin:

[Roddersuk]

Doofers

Here in UK we also call em Doofers and something else as well. My old dad used to call em thingymibobs or whatsitsname and whatchamacallits. Same thing really I suppose. He used to drive me and my brothers crazy when he wanted one of us to get him something and just call it a whatsitsname or a watchamacallit. Mum just used to tell him to get it yourself.

Its called an AN/SQS-X? If any of yall were sonarmen, you know the drill, and cheating is just a matter of perspective of the Rules, Always remember, Rule #1: "there are no rules" only personal limmitations. Hoo Yah, with a big grin, Admeral.

I Spy a scene from inside an oldie but goodie. What's he doin'?

Somebody has to say this...

Looking down. The keen observer may surmise that the notepad and writing instrument are likely related to his interest in whatever it is he's looking at. One assumes it's not a kettle of fish...

[greenman407]

At first I thought that it was a storage system for mines. Then I looked around to the right and then to the left and realized the obvious. Whats he standing on?

[redboat219]

Looks like the cylinders of a huge diesel engine.

[greenman407]

JUMPIN JEEHOSOPHAT!!! YES INDEEDY!!! Looks like, If you use his foot as a gauge, those cyls. could be up to 28" in Dia.

[redboat219]

I'm looking for a T14 hyperdrive generator?

Ive got a T-14, a T-15, and even a T-17... I'll make you a
good deal on that T-17, eh?

Sorry don't know that show...

Bazinga!

[GBerger]

Dudes! It's right in front of your noses.....He's the health and welfare officer taking a poll on the use of the communal head. Wake up, and smell the......? Clearly!

I have seen the piston from the 505 from the big MAN diesels in the type IXs. They are 15"+ dia. If that officers foot is a size 6-9=9 to 10.5 inches (which was the average size of a soldiers foot in the 30s and 40s) those holes are still huge. It sure looks like an engine room with the chainfall hanging where they have lifted the head off. I was thinking hes a Brit. inteligance officer taking notes on a captured U-??? during de engineering process.

[Roddersuk]

The cylinder he has his right foot on, and the one forrard of it are without their liners. I would imagine it is being stripped down for complete examination. New boats have their main engines installed complete through a large aperture in the hull above the engine room which is then closed with a moveable plate.
