To set the record straight Marc,HMCS Cornerbrook has been extremely active and very reliable since commissioning in the Canadian Navy,in fact has received very highest of recognition for her almost continueous deployment. Landlocked Canadian naval gazers never have had any time for their armed forces,especially the Navy since the sea is so foreign to them. Well, its only 70% of the planet.But,landlubbers are what they are.Nuff said. Rgds,Ken
