There is not a way -- that I'm aware of -- to ID military vessels, especially at the distance that sub was from my window. Most military vessels do not transmit location/position information for use by civilians -- for obvious security reasons. Commercial and pleasure craft often do transmit the information that websites, like VesselFinder, use to track them.John's Islandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03618219887687125402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551752452162286188.post-15430426802423305092018-01-29T05:21:01.431-08:002018-01-29T05:21:01.431-08:00What a fun collection!
