Good for them. We don't hear much about India's Navy.

Maybe when Monkeybars comes back he'll tell us how India's Navy ships are all garbage scows compared to Pakistan.

Maybe the navies of the world could sink a few of the giant illegal fishing fleets coming from China and Europe that rape the oceans in front of poor Somalia so that the Somalians can have a way of feeding their families?
