All it took was a virus.

Does it matter? We should scrap at least half the navy and stop
wasting money on big new ships.

It does cause one to realize how vulnerable we may be everywhere
to biological warfare.

We're not about to get into a shooting war with a nuclear power and the
terrorists around the world aren't stymied by their comrades being
killed en masse, so what's the point? These ships are vulnerable.

Better we should build more hospital ships and dispatch them where
needed around the world. We'd be spending far less and building good will.

BTW where are all the TDS people who were telling us those hospital
ships were months away from being able to deploy?

That's something Harry would never understand.

When the plan to send the Comfort to NY came up, the Navy
and the yardbirds in Norfolk said the work being done would
take another month.

A direct order from the Commander in Chief changed all that.

Funny how that works.
