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.
Un excepted…. This$#%&!@*muslim president is trying too bring us down…
Well, i heard that Obama did recall the fleet. Also top level chatter of Russian, China attacking US. Iran taking out Isreal. Venezuela Nuking east coast. WWIII on Jan 20th. POTUS obama won’t leave office. But, maybe some will back out of this, who knows.
My prayer go out to our men and women who aren’t being protected and I pray this isn’t Pearl Harbor all over again

They knew there was emanating threat but nothing to know it was pearl being the actual target at the time. Confirmation is important. You say this as if we should not have gotten into the war. I think your speaking out of turn here. Remember they attacked us.
