the US Navy how to operate.

So they can't seem to operate aircraft, but have a handle on naval
operations? Uh-huh.

Yeah, right. Do the names of Korea, Vietnam, Bieruit, Somalia and soon

surrenders in all of these cases, but just the same.....

"Our military" has surrendered the flag in many battles. You really do
need to read some history.
