Remember mooning the Russian Bears when I was on the Kitty Hawk on WESTPAC. That was the year of the Iranian Hostage Crisis. It was sutpid of us, but man over the 1mc, you got an update minute by minutes almost of "bear time". You would hear somehting like " 2 minutes to bear time", and the you would the Russian Bombers. I know that during the Hostage Crisis, I was with HS-8 and while in the IO a Pakistan Sub was forced to surface after our Helicopters old SH-3Sea Kings) dropped some sonobouys, and started to ping on the sub.
