The following is the transcript of an ACTUAL radio conversation in

October 1995, between a US Navy ship and The British authorities, near

the coast off England . The transcript was released by the MoD on 10/10/95.

 

BRITISH : Please divert your course 15 degrees to the South, to avoid

collision.

 

U.S.NAVY : Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the North, to

avoid collision.

 

BRITISH : Negative. You will have to divert your course 15 degrees to

the South to avoid collision.

 

U.S.NAVY : This is the Captain of US Navy ship. I say again, divert YOUR

course.

 

BRITISH : Negative. I say again. You will have to divert your course.

 

U.S.NAVY : THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS LINCOLN. THE SECOND LARGEST

SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES' ATLANTIC FLEET. WE ARE ACCOMPANIED BY THREE

DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS. I DEMAND THAT

YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH. THAT'S 15 DEGREES NORTH, OR

COUNTER MEASURES WILL BE UNDERTAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

 

BRITISH : We are a lighthouse. F ** k off

I've read that before and it was between a Canadian lighthouse and the US navy.

Quite possible Tazio, it was a forwarded email. Still funny though :)
