Does it matter? We should scrap at least half the navy and stop

We're not about to get into a shooting war with a nuclear power and

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.


You don't seem to understand what an aircraft carrier and the task
forces they operate with are for.

They are a mobile extension of our ability to defend the USA
globally.

They are not to go fight a nuclear war.


Defend us from who? The Russians, the Chinese? The North Koreans?
Nuclear powers? Venezuela?

Yeah we have 18 Ohio class boats and any one of them could end the
world as we know it.

"Good Will" doesn't seem to really buy us much. Those people still
screw us over the first chance they get, usually while we are still
giving them things. Afghanistan would be a good example. Aid workers
are in as much danger as soldiers, maybe more because they are more
vulnerable. A hospital ship in a country like that is nothing but a
big white target with a red bullseye on every flat surface.

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.

service, or volunteering. You even got your wifes house into
