Is it a case of 'either oar'?

"Ah", says Pickle,"now we are getting somewhere". "Where are we getting" asks Pearl, "The Navy" says Pickle. In his eagerness to discover the secrets of Earth's military might, he didn't for one moment think he 'might' be wrong. What he had found was the warship Vasa, the only remaining intact 17th century ship in the world residing in Stockholm, Sweden. What Pickle had not figured out was that this vessel is not representative of, and in no way, resembles the modern battleship, destroyer, cruiser, aircraft carrier and all the paraphernalia of modern warfare. It is to be wondered how his reports back to his home planet will be received! Unless Pickle 'wises up' we shall be overrun by hordes of Ascal-onions and living exclusively on French Onion Soup. Not that I would mind, as long as there is a good supply of croutons.
