Erlkönig: navy+civilian-on-radio.shtml[collected 2002-03-26] Originally circulated as a true story, the following is actually simply an internet myth, but it's funny anyway. Radio conversation with the Navy: Navy: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision. Civilian: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision. Navy: This is the captain of a U.S. Navy ship. Again I say, divert YOUR course. Civilian: No, I say again, you divert YOUR course. Navy: This is the aircraft carrier Enterprise. We are a large warship of the U.S. Navy. Divert YOUR course now! Civilian: This is a lighthouse. Your call. |
