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.
What is going on , we should pray!
Stupid did you forget Pearl Harbor
Lawrence you’re the type of person who gives us decent conservatives a bad name.
I just don’t believe FDR didn’t see the attack on Pearl Harbor coming….they knew what the Japanese where doing….they knew the Japanese navy was very large and had several very large battle aircraft carriers and dread knots and it was modern….and what did he do ….cut our military, no modernization, consolidated bases……all our weapons just lined up……I’ve seen f16’s at McGill AFB by the dozens just lined up like ducks in a shooting gallery…..it’s almost like we are begging them to attack us….your observation is right on target….like Democrat FDR, like Democrat B.O.
The world won’t end, and we don’t need to be the world’s policemen.
TY for Serving Rick Fennell

Bob Turner Thanks Bob. That’s very kind of you! It was a pleasure for this good old country boy to serve in our awesome Air Force.
This man is evil crazy.!!!! Can’t congress do something about this. We are totally unprotected!! Hang that sob!!!
Jason Dominy, you need to open your liberal eyes. Many of them who have attacked American citizens have been here for years. Better to take no chances.
