[edit] Chasing Russian submarines

The wording there was odd, so I took out the references to diesel and nuclear submarines. If someone wants to restore them, they should explain when he stopped chasing diesel subs and started going after nuclear ones- did he change ships, was his ship reassigned, did the Russians phase out diesel subs, etc. Stilgar135 22:47, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unencyclopedic speculations

I am the only one who finds the following assertion ridiculous: "Without Charlie Wilson, Communist Russia would have most likely crushed the Afghan resistance. Although most people are not aware of it, Charlie Wilson, with the help of many others, helped bring down the communist government by supplying millions of dollars to the Afghan Mujahideen to beat the soviets in Afghanistan". --Ghirla ^-трёп- 09:27, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

-- Read the non-fiction book Charlie Wilson's War. "Without Charlie Wilson, Communist Russia would have most likely crushed the Afghan resistance." is quite factual.

[edit] Too patriotic

This article is way too patriotic. It needs to be revised to reflect a more neutral stance. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 205.196.181.132 (talk) 19:13, 9 January 2007 (UTC).
