Just another Celebrity Stalker!

This story in the Washington Times about the Chinese submarine that "stalked" the USS Kitty Hawk is nothing to be concerned about. The media always tends to make more of a story like this than it should. The diesel sub surfaced about 5 miles from the Kitty Hawk. Seeing how diesel subs can only stay submerged for so long before they have to fire up their diesel engines to recharge the batteries, it seems to me that this was a desperate attempt to be noticed by the US, by trying to see how far out into deep waters they can go without having to surface. This is not the first time a Chinese sub has intruded into military exercises and probably won't be the last. Let's just say that I know for a fact that it is very difficult for any sub out there to sneak up on us without being noticed, especially if there are any of our subs in the area as there typically are when a Carrier Group is out. Looks like another Celebrity Stalker made some headlines!
