The most valuable naval assets the US deploys are its aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines. Unlike the subs which remain hidden, our ten aircraft carriers remain in full view. For anyone who has ever see one in person, the things are just overwhelming. They cost billions and take years to construct. The loss of a single aircraft carrier, let alone several, would be catastrophic.
They remain a primary method by which the US projects power around the globe. Accompanied by cruisers and destroyers (and probably a submarine), a carrier task force is formidable indeed.
Typically we see our carriers, or at least some of them, deployed around the world, frequently in the Middle East. For a brief period of time right now, that’s not the case. More on page two.
Stand down???? WTH???
Battleship row all over again
Obama dropping our pants so we can get a kick in the$#%&!@* Traitor who should be tried and hanged
Bad move!
Who needs a billon dollar carrier when you have a 1000dollar drone, thats Obama logic.He cann’t be gone soon enuf
Put them on full alert. Make sure they’re ready to sail.
Is this an act of treason to put Americans in harms way thought he was paid to protect America that obama
Sickening, and everyone was screaming that Trump would be the one to get us all killed. We need to pray for the forces deployed as they are vulnerable w/o the protection of our carriers.
this is one of the dumbest moves he has ever done, and there is a long list, he wants them destroyed so we don’t have any airforce to drop bombs, thing is in the face of adversary, if this did occur, we tend to forget differences and band together to take down the aggressor. at least we use to, and hope we will again. we’ve always fought among each other, not to this extent, but it’s a fact that when tragedy or disaster occurs we come together, shame it can’t be like that always, Americans are such a diverse group of people
Set up!
