[CommandoBob]

This is mainly a reference thread so that I can keep track of what ship names have been used. After a while, they start to blend in together.

The list is not complete. I know we lost some ships in the Gong war, but I haven't had time to go back and get them. And unless I'm really trying to avoid real work around the house, I don't plan to go back and find all the commissioning dates of our ships. As new ones are added, I'll included them.

Suggestions are welcome, too.
