Gunnery Training Ship

Famous quotes containing the words gunnery, training and/or ship:

    It’s gunnery practice out at sea
    Just as before you went below;
    The world is as it used to be
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.
    Bill Cosby (20th century)

    No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned.... A man in a jail has more room, better food and commonly better company.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
