...who presumably didn't realize she had the periscope's undivided attention?

Well, we were on the surface. I'm sure if she looked she'd have seen the scope turning.
But, most people assume it's looking at the horizon, and don't know the optics can angle up/down a limited amount.

But, if you want to know, a lot of women on small boats at sea will get an all over tan. And sometimes, a sub may be in the area.

Real Question
Why does the Navy wear a name tape above the right rear pocket?

So if the laundry is done in batches, you can find your stuff.

So you can yell at the guy in front of you by name?
They tell you where you label things, you do it.

Are you as old as Churchmouse???
The Republic of Texas was dissolved in 1846.

Allegedly.

You triggered on RoT but not Freistaat Bayern?

I read more on the history of Texas than on the history of Bavaria.

France was the first nation to recognized the RoT as a sovereign nation and they had an Embassy in Paris (1 Place Vendome, now an hotel).
I've been there (The former embassy, not Texas).

That is engraved on the facade.

You can barely see it on the pic bellow (in between the two heads, behind the lamp post).

Those are good pictures, did you take those or find them some place? Have you been there?

(Btw,I think the United States recognized the Republic of Texas first, in 1837, France was the first European country to recognize RoT (1839).)

ETA: p.s. you should come visit. Maybe not right now, the daily high temp is about 99 degrees F (37C), but some time soon.
