Asking who is the most fuckable can only lead to the biggest clown on clown violence imagineable bc you want my pussy to decide by reason? Famously not what it does. I guess the ace people can deduct who they would hypothetically classify as best lover, but if anyone else does that, you are a coward. Let your libido decide because zhere is no rational argument for sexual preference.

Destroyer's bow knifes into doomed sub Stricken submarine drifts helplessly

Destroyer nears to pick up submarine crew

And down goes Italian sub to bottom

BRITISH destroyer crews have developed a new technique in battling submarines which prey on Allied convoys in the Mediterranean. After forcing the enemy craft to the surface, through the use of depth bombs, the destroyer rams the sub to prevent escape. This was the method used by the crew of the British destroyer Ithuriel to ram and sink the Italian submarine Cobalto, and is graphically illustrated in these exclusive pictures.

- from the Windsor Star. October 20, 1942. Page 21.
