Hi!
As you might know, your entry on Submarine Combat was selected for inclusion in the UnderGuide (UG). Now, the job of polishing this gem went to me and here I would like to suggest some very minor changes to the entry. Please let me know if you approve of them. If not (no probs) the entry will be included in the UG as is.
Here goes the changelog:
Typos: "viberating" -> "vibrating"
"echos" -> "echoes"
"alot" -> "a lot"
"manuevers" -> "maneuvers"
"torpedos" -> "torpedoes"
Layout:
* Added an "off" switch to the second "disclaimer" Haeding at the beginning and end of the entry
* added the UG blob
* Added some "" after the first Disclaimer and in the Hunt for Red October - Quote Subheader
Punctuation:
Changed the fullstops in
"You should then have a good fix on his range, bearing, and mark. (where he is and where he is going.)"
to
"You should then have a good fix on his range, bearing, and mark (where he is and where he is going)."
Please let me know what you think of the changes, see A2198496 for the version that incorporates the changes.
Thanks for writing this very enjoyable piece!

Heya Tube.
Good work on the polishing. I'm pleased with the results. I was never really sure how to spell vibrating... too lazy to look it up, so good catch. One thing I just saw on a look-through, though, at the decoy paragraph, I write "lets face it, if they were rocket scientists, blah blah blah." I think that should be "let's".
Other than that, am happy with the results, and it's been a business doing pleasure with you. ...um, nevermind.
