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.
Heads up people.
I’ll bet the captains have a plan to move on a moments notice!
Barry needs to be arrested for all of these lame duck actions
yet another one of obamas little plan to have us attacked and decimated
if it’s for maintance, as you have stated, why are all called back, we are not saying anything against the Navy, we support our troops, but not the person in the wh at the moment. if they are so bad, as you have said, then bring back the worse first, then a number at a time. You do not place all carriers in the same location, bad tactics
B******t, exposing this great nation
Who is the idiot in charge that is doing this , unbelievable
so what you are saying is that Pearl Harbor was intentionally allowed by our government to replace our destroyers, think about that, the fact is that Japan was in Peack talks with us while plotting to attack, way to twist history though
He is up to something big real soon
That’s a big fucking mistake
